Dell Software License Agreement


DELL SOFTWARE LICENSE AGREEMENT

This is a legal agreement ("Agreement") between you, the user, and Dell Products L.P or Dell Global B.V. (Singapore Branch), a Singapore branch of a company incorporated in The Netherlands with limited liability, on behalf of Dell Inc. and Dell Inc.'s subsidiaries and affiliates (together "Dell"). This Agreement covers all software (and upgrades and updates thereto) that is distributed by Dell and for which there is no separate license agreement between you and the manufacturer or owner of the software (collectively the "Software"). This Agreement is not for the sale of Software or any other intellectual property. All title and intellectual property rights in and to Software are owned and retained by the manufacturer or owner of the Software. All rights not expressly granted under this Agreement are reserved by the manufacturer or owner of the Software. By opening or breaking the seal on the Software packet(s), installing, downloading, activating the Software, click-accepting these terms, or using the Software, you agree to be bound by the terms of this Agreement. If you do not agree to these terms, you may not install, download, activate, or otherwise use the Software and must promptly return for a full refund all Software (including accompanying media, written materials, and packaging) or delete any Software, as directed by Dell; for software included with your purchase of hardware, you must return the entire hardware/software package. Provided, however, the right to a full refund does not apply to any updates or upgrades subject to the terms of this Agreement. If you are an entity, you acknowledge that the individual accepting these terms has appropriate authority to do so and to bind you.

Subject to the terms, conditions and limitations of this Agreement, Dell grants you a limited, nonexclusive, nontransferable (except as set forth herein), non-assignable license, to use the Software (in object code only) only on as many computers, devices, or in such configurations as you are expressly entitled, or one computer or device, if no other entitlement is specified, and for only such period as you are entitled, in the case of a term license, and perpetually, if no term is specified. You may use the Software only on Dell computers or devices, with the exception of mobile device application software specifically designed by Dell to be run on non-Dell hardware. "Use" means to install, store, load, execute, and display the Software. If you are a commercial customer of Dell, you hereby grant Dell, or an agent selected by Dell, the right to perform an audit of your use of the Software during normal business hours; you agree to cooperate with Dell in such audit; and you agree to provide Dell with all records reasonably related to your use of the Software. The audit will be limited to verification of your compliance with the terms of this Agreement. The Software is protected by United States and other applicable copyright laws, patent laws, and international treaties. You may make one copy of the Software solely for backup or archival purposes or transfer it to a single hard disk or storage device provided you keep the copy solely for backup or archival purposes. You shall reproduce and include copyright and other proprietary notices on and in any copies for the Software. You may not sublicense, rent, or lease the Software or copy the written materials accompanying the Software. You may transfer the Software and all accompanying materials on a permanent basis as part of a sale or transfer of the Dell product on which it was preloaded by Dell, where applicable, if you retain no copies and the recipient agrees to the terms hereof. Any such transfer must include the most recent update and all prior versions. You may not reverse engineer, decompile or disassemble, modify, or create derivative works of the Software. If the package accompanying your Dell computer or device contains optical discs or other storage media, you may use only the media appropriate for your computer or device. You may not use the optical discs or storage media on another computer, device, or network, or loan, rent, lease, or transfer them to another user except as permitted by this Agreement.

LIMITED WARRANTY AND LIMITATION OF LIABILITY

Dell warrants that the Software media (if applicable) will be free from defects in materials and workmanship under normal use for 90 days from the date you receive them. This warranty is limited to you and is not transferable. Any implied warranties are limited to 90 days from the date you receive the Software. Some jurisdictions do not allow limits on the duration of an implied warranty, so this limitation may not apply to you. The entire liability of Dell and its suppliers, and your exclusive remedy, shall be, at Dell's option, either (a) termination of this Agreement and return of the price paid for the Software or (b) replacement of any media not meeting this warranty that is sent with a return authorization number to Dell, within the 90 day warranty period, at your cost and risk. This limited warranty is void if any media damage has resulted from accident, abuse, misapplication, or service or modification by someone other than Dell. Any replacement media is warranted for the remaining original warranty period or 30 days, whichever is longer.

Dell and its suppliers do NOT warrant that the functions of the Software will meet your requirements or that operation of the Software will be uninterrupted or error free. You assume responsibility for selecting the Software to achieve your intended results and for the use and results obtained from the Software. The terms of this Agreement do not entitle you to any maintenance or support for the Software.

DELL, ON BEHALF OF ITSELF AND ITS SUPPLIERS, DISCLAIMS ALL OTHER WARRANTIES, EXPRESS, IMPLIED, OR OTHERWISE, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE OR ANY WARRANTY REGARDING TITLE OR AGAINST INFRINGEMENT, FOR THE SOFTWARE AND ALL ACCOMPANYING WRITTEN MATERIALS. THIS LIMITED WARRANTY GIVES YOU SPECIFIC LEGAL RIGHTS; YOU MAY HAVE OTHERS, WHICH VARY FROM JURISDICTION TO JURISDICTION.

IN NO EVENT SHALL DELL OR ITS SUPPLIERS BE LIABLE FOR ANY DAMAGES WHATSOEVER (INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION DAMAGES FOR LOSS OF BUSINESS PROFITS, BUSINESS INTERRUPTION, LOSS OF BUSINESS INFORMATION OR OTHER DATA, OR OTHER PECUNIARY LOSS) ARISING OUT OF USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE SOFTWARE, EVEN IF ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. BECAUSE SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW AN EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION OF LIABILITY FOR CONSEQUENTIAL OR INCIDENTAL DAMAGES, THE ABOVE LIMITATION MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.

HOSTED & INTERNET-ACCESSIBLE SOFTWARE

Some or all of the Software may be remotely hosted or accessible to you through the Internet. In such case, Dell may suspend, terminate, withdraw, or discontinue all or part of the Software or your access to the Software upon receipt of a subpoena or law-enforcement request, or when Dell believes, in its sole discretion, that you have breached any term of this Agreement or are involved in any fraudulent, misleading, or illegal activities. Dell may modify the Software at any time with or without prior notice to you. Dell may perform scheduled or unscheduled repairs or maintenance, or remotely patch or upgrade the Software installed on its and your computer system(s), which may temporarily degrade the quality of the Software or result in a partial or complete outage of the Software. Updates, patches or alerts may be delivered from Dell servers, which may be located outside of your country. Dell provides no assurance that you will receive advance notification of such activities or that your use of the Software will be uninterrupted or error-free.

OPEN SOURCE SOFTWARE

A portion of the Software may contain or consist of open source software, which you can use under the terms and conditions of the specific license under which the open source software is distributed.

THIS OPEN SOURCE SOFTWARE IS DISTRIBUTED IN THE HOPE THAT IT WILL BE USEFUL, BUT IS PROVIDED "AS IS" WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY, EXPRESS,IMPLIED, OR OTHERWISE, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO THE IMPLIED WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE OR ANY WARRANTY REGARDING TITLE OR AGAINST INFRINGEMENT. IN NO EVENT SHALL DELL, THE COPYRIGHT HOLDERS, OR THE CONTRIBUTORS BE LIABLE FOR ANY DIRECT, INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO PROCUREMENT OF SUBSTUTUTE GOODS OR SERVICES; LOSS OF USE, DATA, OR PROFITS; OR BUSINESS INTERRUPTION) HOWEVER CAUSED AND ON ANY THEORY OF LIABILITY, WHETHER IN CONTRACT, STRICT LIABILITY, OR TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE OR OTHERWISE) ARISING IN ANY WAY OUT OF THE USE OF THIS OPEN SOURCE SOFTWARE, EVEN IF ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGE.

Under certain open source software licenses, you are entitled to obtain the corresponding source files. You may find corresponding source files for the Software at http://opensource.dell.com or at such other locations indicated by Dell.

EXPORT

You are advised that the Software is subject to U.S. export laws as well as the laws of the country where it is delivered or used. You agree to abide by these laws. Under these laws, the Software may not be sold, leased, or transferred to restricted countries (currently Cuba, Iran, North Korea, Sudan, and Syria), restricted end-users, or for restricted end-uses. You specifically agree that the Software will not be used for activities related to weapons of mass destruction, including but not limited to activities related to the design, development, production, or use of nuclear materials, nuclear facilities, or nuclear weapons, missiles, or support of missile projects, or chemical or biological weapons.

U.S. GOVERNMENT RESTRICTED RIGHTS

The software and documentation are "commercial items" as that term is defined at 48 C.F.R. 2.101, consisting of "commercial computer software" and "commercial computer software documentation" as such terms are used in 48 C.F.R. 12.212. Consistent with 48 C.F.R. 12.212 and 48 C.F.R. 227.7202-1 through 227.7202-4, all U.S. Government end users acquire the software and documentation with only those rights set forth herein. Contractor/manufacturer is Dell Products L.P., One Dell Way, Round Rock, Texas, 78682.

GENERAL

This license is effective until terminated. It will terminate upon the conditions set forth above or if you fail to comply with any of its terms. Upon termination, you agree that the Software and accompanying materials, and all copies thereof, will be destroyed. This Agreement is governed by the laws of the State of Texas, without regard to principles of conflicts of laws. Each provision of this Agreement is severable. If a provision is found to be unenforceable, this finding does not affect the enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement. This Agreement is binding on successors and assigns. Dell agrees and you agree to waive, to the maximum extent permitted by law, any right to a jury trial with respect to the Software or this Agreement. Because this waiver may not be effective in some jurisdictions, this waiver may not apply to you. You acknowledge that you have read this Agreement, that you understand it, that you agree to be bound by its terms, and that this is the complete and exclusive statement of the Agreement between you and Dell regarding the Software.

SUPPLEMENTAL TERMS FOR EMC SOFTWARE

You may use one copy of the Software on only one computer or device at a time for your own internal business purposes. You shall not, without Dell's prior written consent copy, provide, disclose or otherwise make available Software in any form to anyone other than your employees, consultants or independent contractors who shall use the Software in a manner that is consistent with this Agreement.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Agreement, licenses to Software are non-exclusive, non-transferable and non-sub licensable and subject to the restriction that the Software be used solely in conjunction with the equipment (storage system or switch/hub) or related central processing unit for which it was licensed.

7. Proprietary Rights and Confidentiality.

(a) Customer acknowledges and agrees that (i) as between the Company and Customer, all rights, title and interest in and to the Product and all derivatives thereof (including any and all patents, copyrights, trade secret rights, trademarks, trade names and other proprietary rights embodied therein or associated therewith) are and shall remain with the Company, their suppliers or licensors', and this Agreement in no way conveys any right or interest in the Product other than a limited license to use them in accordance herewith, and (ii) the Products are works protected by copyright, trade secret, and other proprietary rights and laws.

In the event that Customer's use of the Products are enjoined by a court of competent authority, the Company shall, at its sole option and at its expense, (I) procure for Customer the right to continue to use the Products in question, (II) modify the Products to avoid infringement without material impairment of its functionality or (III) replace the Products with functionally equivalent non-infringing products. If none of the foregoing remedies can be obtained upon commercially reasonable terms, Customer shall remove and return to the Company the Products in question and the Company shall refund to Customer the unamortized portion, if any, of the fees paid by Customer to the Company for the Products in question (based on a three (3) year amortization of such fees commencing on the Effective Date). The foregoing indemnity shall not apply if the alleged infringement is attributable to the combination of the Products with products not provided by the Company, or if the Product is modified or altered by any person or entity other than the Company (or an authorized agent of the Company), or if the Products are used outside the scope of this Agreement (each a "Customer Modification"). THIS SECTION STATES THE COMPANY'S SOLE LIABILITY HEREUNDER WITH RESPECT TO INFRINGEMENT OF ANY INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY AND PROPRIETARY RIGHTS.

(b) Customer, at its expense, shall defend and indemnify the Company and any of its subsidiaries or affiliates against any action or proceeding brought against the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates and Customer shall pay damages finally awarded or agreed in settlement which arises from or in any manner is connected with a Customer Modification or any of Customer's actions or omissions in using the Products (excluding claims for which the Company is obligated to defend Customer under Section 8(a) hereof); provided, that (i) the Company notifies Customer promptly in writing of the claim in question, (ii) Customer has sole control of the defense and all related settlement negotiations, and (iii) the Company provides Customer with all commercially reasonable assistance, information and authority to perform the above at Customer's expense.

9. Limitation of the Company's Liability.

CUSTOMER'S SOLE REMEDY AND THE COMPANY'S SOLE OBLIGATION WITH RESPECT TO ANY CLAIMS, WHETHER IN CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE, ARISING OUT OF, CONNECTED WITH, OR RESULTING FROM THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY THIS AGREEMENT, AND IN ALL CASES CUSTOMER'S REMEDY SHALL BE EXPRESSLY LIMITED TO MONETARY DAMAGES NOT TO EXCEED THE LESSER OF THE FEES PAID FOR THE SPECIFIC PRODUCT WHICH CAUSED THE DAMAGE OR THE COST OF REPAIR OR REPLACEMENT OF ANY HARDWARE COMPONENTS THAT MALFUNCTION IN CONDITIONS OF NORMAL USE. WITHOUT LIMITING THE FOREGOING, IT IS EXPRESSLY AGREED THAT IN NO EVENT SHALL THE COMPANY OR THEIR SUPPLIERS OR ANYONE ELSE WHO HAS BEEN INVOLVED IN THE PERFORMANCE OF THIS AGREEMENT ON BEHALF OF THE COMPANY, INCLUDING ITS EMPLOYEES, SUBCONTRACTORS OR AGENTS, BE LIABLE FOR ANY DAMAGES CAUSED BY THE PRODUCT OR THE FAILURE OF THE PRODUCT TO PERFORM, INCLUDING ANY LOST PROFITS OR SAVINGS OR SPECIAL, INDIRECT, PUNITIVE, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES. THE COMPANY IS NOT LIABLE FOR ANY CLAIM MADE BY A THIRD PARTY OR MADE BY YOU FOR A THIRD PARTY. THIS LIMITATION OF LIABILITY CANNOT BE WAIVED OR AMENDED BY ANY PERSON. THIS LIMITATION OF LIABILITY WILL BE EFFECTIVE EVEN IF YOU HAVE ADVISED THE COMPANY OR AN AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE OF THE COMPANY OF THE POSSIBILITY OF ANY SUCH DAMAGES. THIS LIMITATION OF LIABILITY, HOWEVER, WILL NOT APPLY TO CLAIMS FOR PERSONAL INJURY. NOTWITHSTANDING THE FOREGOING, THE COMPANY SPECIFICALLY DISCLAIMS, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, LIABILITY FOR ANY PERSONAL INJURY RESULTING FROM FAILURE TO READ AND FOLLOW INSTRUCTIONS AND SAFETY PRECAUTIONS CONTAINED IN THE DOCUMENTATION SUPPLIED WITH THE PRODUCT.

10. Use of Customer's Name.

Customer consents to being listed as a customer of the Company in any standard customer listing (or partial customer listing) published by the Company and in press releases or other publications, provided that such release or publication relates to new customers or to customers generally and does not supply detail regarding Customer or this Agreement beyond the name of the Products licensed without the prior consent of Customer.

11. Third Party Products.

Any third party products are provided solely as a convenience to Customer, and are provided and/or licensed under the terms of said products' manufacturer. The Company assumes no responsibility for said products including but not limited to any warranties or indemnification rights contained in Sections 9 and 10 hereof.

12. Injunctive Relief; Cumulative Remedies.

The parties hereto agree that money damages would be an inadequate remedy for the Company in the event of a breach or threatened breach by Customer of the provisions set forth in Sections 7, 8 or 15 hereof; therefore, in the event of a breach or threatened breach by Customer of any such provisions, the Company may, either with or without pursuing any other remedies afforded to it by law, immediately obtain and enforce an injunction from any court of law or equity prohibiting the Customer from breaching such provisions. All rights and remedies afforded the Company by law shall be cumulative and not exclusive.

13. General.

Customer may not sublicense, assign (by operation of law or otherwise) or transfer this Agreement or any license or any right, duty or obligation under this Agreement without the Company's prior written consent, and any attempt to do so shall be null and void. Any transfer approved by the Company shall immediately terminate this agreement. Subject to the foregoing limitations, this Agreement will mutually benefit and be binding upon the parties, their successors and assigns. Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to imply a joint venture, partnership or agency relationship between the parties and the Company shall be considered an independent contractor when performing any services in connection with this Agreement.

Any notice required to be provided pursuant to this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed given if sent to the addresses stated on the sales quotation and such notices shall be effective upon receipt. A failure or delay by either party to enforce any right under this Agreement shall not at any time constitute a waiver of such right or any other right, and shall not modify the rights or obligations of either party under this Agreement. To the extent that any provision of this Agreement is found to be void or unenforceable, such provision shall be without effect and the remainder of the Agreement shall be enforced to the full extent of the law.

In no event shall either party be liable for any delay or failure to perform under this Agreement which is due to causes beyond the reasonable control of such part including but not limited to any act of God, act of any government or other authority or statutory undertaking, industrial dispute, fire, explosion, accident, power failure, flood, riot or war (declared or undeclared).

This Agreement shall be governed by and construed under the laws of the State of New Hampshire, without regard to principles of conflicts of laws. Application of the U.N. Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods is expressly excluded. Any action brought pursuant to or in connection with this Agreement shall be brought only in the state or federal courts within the State of New Hampshire without regard to its conflict of law's provisions. In any such action, the parties shall submit to the personal jurisdiction of the courts of the State of New Hampshire and waive any objections to venue in such courts.

Pre-printed terms and conditions set forth on any purchase order submitted by Customer, or on any quotation, purchase order acceptance or invoice submitted by Customer, shall have no force and effect and are expressly superseded by the terms of this Agreement. In the event of a conflict between the terms of this Agreement and the terms of the Warranty and Support Information documentation supplied with the Product, the terms of the Warranty and Support Information shall control. The Company may make Product updates and enhancements available to Customer from time to time accompanied by a revision or amendment to this Agreement. Installation or use by Customer of the Products or any such updates or enhancements shall constitute acceptance by Customer of this Agreement and/or any such revised agreement. Except as expressly provided herein, no amendment or modification of this Agreement shall be effective unless made in writing and signed by the Company and Customer.

This Agreement is the entire agreement of the parties, and supersedes all prior agreements and communications, whether oral or in writing, between the parties with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement.

(Rev. 030109)


DELL KACE SOFTWARE END USER LICENSE AGREEMENT

This is a legal agreement ("Agreement") between you, the user, and Dell Inc. and its subsidiaries and affiliates ("Dell"). This Agreement covers all software and associated documentation that is distributed with or for the Dell product (and upgrades and updates thereto), known as a "KACE Appliance," whether such software is delivered independently or preloaded on Dell hardware, whether branded KACE or Dell KACE or otherwise (collectively the "Software"). This Agreement is not for the sale of Software or any other intellectual property. All title and intellectual property rights in and to Software is owned by the manufacturer or owner of the Software. All rights not expressly granted under this Agreement are reserved by the manufacturer or owner of the Software. By opening or breaking the seal on the Software packet(s), installing or downloading the Software, or using the Software that has been preloaded or is embedded in your product, you agree to be bound by the terms of this Agreement. If you do not agree to these terms, promptly return all Software items (media, written materials, and packaging) and any hardware containing preloaded Software.

PLEASE NOTE: THIS AGREEMENT MAY DIFFER FROM THE LICENSE AGREEMENT INCLUDED IN THE PRINTED MATERIALS ENCLOSED IN THE BOX WITH YOUR KACE APPLIANCE. IF SO, THIS AGREEMENT SHALL CONTROL OVER THE PRINTED DOCUMENT.

If you have received Software for use on a trial basis ("Trial Software"), then your right to use the Trial Software and any other rights under this Agreement shall terminate at the end of the trial period unless you purchase a license to the Software. You may not copy, reproduce, or distribute Trial Software for any reason. DELL PROVIDES TRIAL SOFTWARE "AS IS" AND WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, AND DELL, ON BEHALF OF ITSELF AND ITS SUPPLIERS, DISCLAIMS ALL WARRANTIES, EXPRESS, IMPLIED, OR OTHERWISE, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE OR ANY WARRANTY REGARDING TITLE OR AGAINST INFRINGEMENT. You understand and agree that Dell is not obligated to provide support of any kind for Trial Software.

If you purchased Software preloaded onto Dell hardware, whether branded KACE or Dell KACE or otherwise, (such hardware and Software together, an "Appliance"), you may use the Software only together with the Appliance on which it was loaded by Dell. If you purchased Software independent of hardware (such Software, a "Virtual Appliance"), you may install the Virtual Appliance and run the number of instances of the Virtual Appliance as you have purchased licenses. So long as you do not exceed the scope of your license, you may move a Virtual Appliance to a different server. You may distribute Software to computers or other physical or virtual devices configured for management by your Appliance or Virtual Appliance (each such device, a "Managed Computer"), provided that the number of Managed Computers does not exceed the scope of the Software license (including the number of licensed nodes) that you have purchased from Dell. In determining the number of Managed Computers, each individual physical device and each virtual device (e.g., each instance of an operating environment running concurrently with another operating environment on a single physical device) shall constitute a separate Managed Computer.

If you are a commercial customer of Dell or a Dell affiliate, you hereby grant Dell, or an agent selected by Dell, the right to perform an audit of your use of the Software during normal business hours, you agree to cooperate with Dell in such audit, and you agree to provide Dell with all records reasonably related to your use of the Software. The audit will be limited to verification of your compliance with the terms of this Agreement.

The Software is protected by United States and other applicable copyright laws and international treaties. You may make one copy of the Software purchased as a Virtual Appliance solely for backup or archival purposes or transfer it to a single hard disk or storage device provided you keep the copy solely for backup or archival purposes. Otherwise, you may not make copies of the Software except to either (i) with respect to an Appliance, load the KACE Agent Software into the computer as part of executing the Software on a Managed Computer or (ii) with respect to a Virtual Appliance, make as many copies of the software as you have licensed Virtual Appliances and load the KACE Agent Software into the computer as part of executing the Software on a Managed Computer. You shall reproduce and include copyright and other proprietary notices on and in any copies for the Software. You may not sublicense, rent or lease or otherwise transfer or distribute the Software or the accompanying written materials to others or copy the written materials accompanying the Software. You may not reverse engineer, decompile or disassemble, modify or create derivative works of the Software. If the package accompanying your computer or device contains optical discs, or other storage media, you may use only the media appropriate for your computer or device. You may not use the optical discs or storage media on another computer, device or network, or loan, rent, lease, or transfer them to another user except as permitted by this Agreement. You may not release the results of any performance or functional evaluation of any of the Software or any Dell product to any third party without prior written approval of Dell for each such release. You agree that you shall comply with all applicable laws, including without limitation, all export laws and regulations.

The Software regularly communicates with Dell during the normal course of operation to obtain and provide updated data feeds. You agree that Dell may collect, store, aggregate, and analyze information about your usage of the Software, including, without limitation, information about applications, processes, services, and characteristics of your user environment associated with using the Software, database, application server, and Licensee's error logs (collectively, the "Data"), for internal use in order to provide product support and conduct product research. If at any time during the Term you opt to activate the AppDeploy Live feature, you agree that Dell may collect, store, aggregate, analyze, and disclose to other Software users and to the general public the Data collected by Dell in anonymous, aggregate form. You further understand and agree that any information you choose to manually disclose through the AppDeploy Live feature may be used and disclosed in accordance with the foregoing sentence. In such cases, you grant Dell a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free, perpetual, non-revocable license to use, compile, distribute, display, store, process, reproduce, or create derivative works of the Data. You represent and warrant that you have obtained all rights, permissions, and consents necessary to use and transfer the Data within and outside of the country in which you are located in conjunction with your use of the Software (including providing adequate disclosures and obtaining legally sufficient consent from your employees, agents, and contractors).

LIMITED WARRANTY

Dell warrants that the Software media will be free from defects in materials and workmanship under normal use for 90 days from the date you receive them. This warranty is limited to you and is not transferable. Any implied warranties are limited to 90 days from the date you receive the Software. Some jurisdictions do not allow limits on the duration of an implied warranty, so this limitation may not apply to you. The entire liability of Dell and its suppliers, and your exclusive remedy, shall be, at Dell's option, either (a) termination of this Agreement and return of the price paid for the Software or (b) replacement of any media not meeting this warranty that is sent with a return authorization number to Dell, within the 90 day warranty period, at your cost and risk. This limited warranty is void if any media damage has resulted from accident, abuse, misapplication, or service or modification by someone other than Dell. Any replacement media is warranted for the remaining original warranty period or 30 days, whichever is longer.

Dell and its suppliers do NOT warrant that the functions of the Software will meet your requirements or that operation of the Software will be uninterrupted or error free. You assume responsibility for selecting the Software to achieve your intended results and for the use and results obtained from the Software.

DELL, ON BEHALF OF ITSELF AND ITS SUPPLIERS, DISCLAIMS ALL OTHER WARRANTIES, EXPRESS, IMPLIED, OR OTHERWISE, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE OR ANY WARRANTY REGARDING TITLE OR AGAINST INFRINGEMENT, FOR THE SOFTWARE AND ALL ACCOMPANYING WRITTEN MATERIALS. THIS LIMITED WARRANTY GIVES YOU SPECIFIC LEGAL RIGHTS; YOU MAY HAVE OTHERS, WHICH VARY FROM JURISDICTION TO JURISDICTION.

IN NO EVENT SHALL DELL OR ITS SUPPLIERS BE LIABLE FOR ANY DAMAGES WHATSOEVER (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, DAMAGES FOR LOSS OF BUSINESS PROFITS, BUSINESS INTERRUPTION, LOSS OF BUSINESS INFORMATION, OR OTHER PECUNIARY LOSS) ARISING OUT OF USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE SOFTWARE, EVEN IF ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. BECAUSE SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW AN EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION OF LIABILITY FOR CONSEQUENTIAL OR INCIDENTAL DAMAGES, THE ABOVE LIMITATION MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.

This Agreement does not entitle you to receive Software support, patches, upgrades or updates. In order to receive Software support and any patches, upgrades and updates that are released to licensed users of the Software with current support contracts, you must purchase Dell Kace technical support services, which are described at www.kace.com/support. In addition, first time purchasers of a KACE Appliance are required to purchase training services referred to as the KACE JumpStart Program at the time of purchase of their initial KACE Appliance. In connection with the KACE JumpStart Program, KACE or a KACE authorized third party will deliver online training to assist you in the installation and basic configuration of the KACE Appliance. This training will also include exercises that enable deployment of KACE Agent Software on up to 150 managed machines as well as instructions on how to successfully deploy KACE Agent Software on the remaining managed machines (if any). The KACE JumpStart Program consists of a fixed number of two hour sessions depending on the specific model and modules purchased.

Standard Appliance JumpStart               2 sessions
Standard Bundle JumpStart                    4 sessions
Enterprise Appliance JumpStart             6 sessions
Enterprise Bundle JumpStart                12 sessions

These sessions must be completed within 60 days of the initial KACE Appliance shipment. Sessions not completed within that time period can be purchased separately at the then current price levels. All services delivered by or on behalf of Dell, including technical support services for Software and training including the KACE JumpStart Programs are provided pursuant to the Dell Customer Master Services Agreement posted at: www.dell.com/servicecontracts and by accepting the terms of this EULA you agree that such terms shall govern any Software support or other services provided by or on behalf of Dell.

Licensor does not warrant that use of the Software will be uninterrupted or error free. The limited Software warranty applicable to the specific product licensed by End User may be accessed at www.Dell.com/Warranty or https://www.force10networks.com/CSPortal20/Support/SupportPolicies.aspx.

UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCE WILL LICENSOR OR ITS SUB-LICENSOR'S AGGREGATE LIABILITY FOR ANY AND ALL CLAIMS TO END USER UNDER ANY CONTRACT, STRICT LIABILITY, NEGLIGENCE, OR OTHER LEGAL OR EQUITABLE THEORY IN CONNECTION WITH THE SUBJECT MATTER OF THIS EULA BE GREATER THAN THE AMOUNTS ACTUALLY RECEIVED BY LICENSOR FROM END USER FOR THE SOFTWARE AFFECTED UNDER THIS AGREEMENT FOR THE 12 MONTH PERIOD PRIOR TO THE DATE OF THE ACTION GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM(S).
  7. PROTECTION OF CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION. "Proprietary Information" includes the Software, and all information related to the Software that is marked with a proprietary or confidential legend or that End User should reasonably understand is proprietary or confidential to Licensor or its licensors. Without limiting any other restriction or prohibition set forth in this EULA, End User agrees to hold in trust and strict confidence for Licensor all Proprietary Information during the term of the EULA and for a period of five (5) years thereafter, and agrees to its immediate return or destruction upon termination of this EULA. End User may disclose Proprietary Information only to its employees and third parties authorized in Section B above, and then only on a need-to-know basis. End User shall maintain adequate internal procedures, including binding agreements at least as restrictive as this EULA with employees and authorized third parties (whose confidentiality obligations shall survive termination of employment or agency), to protect the confidentiality of the Proprietary Information as required by this EULA. Nothing in this Section G imposes an obligation of confidentiality on End User with respect to Proprietary Information which (a) is rightfully in End User's possession in a substantially complete and tangible form prior to the time it is received from Licensor, (b) is hereafter broadly and generally distributed to others by Licensor without restrictions on disclosure or use, or (c) is hereafter rightfully furnished to End User by a third party without restriction on disclosure or use. Neither party shall release information regarding the existence or terms of this EULA to any party unless both parties agree in writing to the contents of such release.
  8. GOVERNMENT END USERS: The Software is comprised of "commercial computer software" and "commercial computer software documentation" as such terms are used in 48 C.F.R. 12.212 (SEPT 1995) and is provided to the Government (i) for acquisition by or on behalf of civilian agencies, consistent with the policy set forth in 48 C.F.R. 12.212; or (ii) for acquisition by or on behalf of units of the Department of Defense, consistent with the policies set forth in 48 C.F.R. 227-7202-1 (JUN 1995) and 227.7202-3 (JUN 1995).
  9. EXPORT CONTROL: The Software is subject to the export control laws of the United States and other applicable export and import laws, and End User may not export or re-export the Licensor product, directly or indirectly, in violation of these laws or use the Licensor product for any purpose prohibited by these laws and will obtain the necessary United States and foreign government licenses. End User shall otherwise comply with all applicable export control laws and shall defend, indemnify and hold Licensor and its licensors/suppliers harmless from any claims arising out of your violation of such export control laws.
  10. GENERAL TERMS. Third-party owners from whom Licensor has acquired license rights to software that is incorporated into the Software shall have the right to enforce the provisions of this EULA against End User as intended third-party beneficiaries. During the term of this EULA: (a) Licensor shall have the right, not to exceed once per year, to audit End User's compliance with the terms and conditions of this EULA; and (b) End User shall maintain complete and accurate records of such compliance with this EULA. End User acknowledges and agrees that unauthorized reproduction, use, or disclosure of the Software or any part thereof is likely to cause irreparable injury to Licensor and/or its licensors, who shall therefore be entitled to injunctive relief to enforce this EULA, in addition to any other remedies available at law or in equity. This EULA sets forth the entire agreement and understanding of the parties relating to the subject matter herein and merges and supersedes all prior or contemporaneous oral or written discussions between them. This EULA shall be governed by the laws of the State of Texas without regard to conflict of laws principles. The parties acknowledge and agree that the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods shall not apply to this EULA or to the performance of the parties hereunder. If any provision of this EULA is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be illegal, invalid, or unenforceable, that provision shall be limited or eliminated to the minimum extent necessary so that this EULA shall otherwise remain in full force and effect and enforceable. No amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this EULA shall be effective unless in writing and signed by the parties. The parties are independent contractors, and nothing in this EULA shall be construed to create a joint venture or partnership or otherwise give rise to fiduciary obligations between the parties. End User acknowledges that the Software is a U.S. origin good and hereby agrees to comply with the applicable rules and regulations of the United States Government and agencies relating to export restrictions on U.S. origin goods and further agrees not to export or ship any Software except in compliance with such rules and regulations. End User, at its expense, shall indemnify and defend Licensor against any claim, action or proceeding brought against Licensor which arises from or is in any manner connected with End User's use of the Software except as expressly permitted in this EULA. End User further agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Licensor from any and all fines, damages, losses, costs, and expenses, including reasonable attorney's fees, incurred by Licensor as a result of any breach of this Agreement. End User shall not assign all or any portion of the rights hereunder, or delegate or subcontract all or any portion of its obligations hereunder, without the prior written consent of Licensor.

The use of any other software, including any software package or file, whether licensed to you separately by Dell or by a third party, is subject to the terms and conditions that come with or are associated with such software.
  3. Rights Reserved. THE SOFTWARE IS LICENSED, NOT SOLD. Except for the license expressly granted in this EULA, Dell, on behalf of itself and its licensors and suppliers, retains all right, title, and interest in and to the Software and in all related content, materials, copyrights, trade secrets, patents, trademarks, derivative works and any other intellectual and industrial property and proprietary rights, including registrations, applications, renewals, and extensions of such rights (the "Works"). The rights in these Works are valid and protected in all forms, media and technologies existing now or hereafter developed and any use other than as contemplated herein, including the reproduction, modification, distribution, transmission, adaptations, translation, display, republication or performance of the Works, except as specifically permitted herein, is strictly prohibited. Dell, on behalf of itself and its licensors and suppliers, retains all rights not expressly granted herein.
  4. Restrictions. Except as otherwise provided herein or expressly agreed by Dell, you may not, and will not allow a third party to (A) sell, lease, license, sublicense, assign, distribute or otherwise transfer or encumber in whole or in part the Software; (B) provide, make available to, or permit use of the Software in whole or in part by, any third party, including contractors, without Dell's prior written consent, unless such use by the third party is strictly in compliance with the terms and conditions of this EULA and you are liable for any breach of this EULA by such third party; (C) copy, reproduce, republish, upload, post or transmit the Software in any way (D) decompile, disassemble, reverse engineer, or otherwise attempt to derive source code (or underlying ideas, algorithms, structure or organization) from the Software program, in whole or in part; (E) modify or create derivative works based upon the Software; (F) use the Software on a service bureau, rental or managed services basis or permit other individuals or entities to create Internet "links" to the Software or "frame" or "mirror" the Software on any other server or wireless or Internet-based device; (G) use Software that was loaded by Dell onto specific hardware (an "Appliance") separately from such Appliance; or (H) use the Software to create a competitive offering. You may not, and will not allow a third party to, use the Software in excess of the number of licenses expressly authorized by Dell. In addition, you may not share the results of any benchmarking of the Software without Dell's prior written consent.
  5. Compliance. You will certify in writing, upon reasonable request by Dell, that all use of Software is in compliance with the terms of this EULA, indicating the number of Software licenses deployed at that time. You grant Dell, or an agent selected by Dell, the right to perform a reasonable audit of your compliance with this EULA during normal business hours. You agree to cooperate and provide Dell with all records reasonably related to your compliance with this EULA. If, as a result of the audit, a deficiency of greater than five percent (5%) is found in the licensee fees paid, then you shall bear the total cost of the audit, in addition to any other liabilities you may have.
  6. Support and Subscription Services Not Included. Dell does not provide any maintenance or support services under this EULA. Maintenance and support services, if any, are provided under a separate agreement, which may be located at www.dell.com/servicecontracts. Additionally, this EULA, in and of itself, does not entitle you to any Updates at any time in the future.
  7. Termination. Dell may terminate this EULA immediately and without prior notice if you fail to comply with any term or condition of this EULA or if Dell does not receive timely payment for the licenses to the Software or for the hardware to which it is attached, if any. In addition, Dell may terminate any license associated with Software distributed for free at any time in its sole discretion. In the event of termination of this EULA, all licenses granted hereunder shall automatically terminate and you must immediately cease use of the Software and return or destroy all copies of the Software. The parties recognize and agree that their obligations under Sections 3, 4, 7, 10, 11, 12, 16, 17, 18, 19, 21 and 22 of this EULA, as well as obligations for payment, survive the cancellation, termination, and/or expiration of this EULA, and/or the licenses granted hereunder.
  8. Export, Import and Government Restrictions. You are advised that the Software is subject to U.S. export laws as well as the laws of the country where it is delivered or used. You agree to abide by these laws. Under these laws, the Software may not be sold, leased, or transferred to restricted countries (currently Cuba, Iran, North Korea, Sudan and Syria), restricted end-users, or for restricted end-uses. You specifically agree that the Software will not be used for activities related to weapons of mass destruction, including but not limited to, activities related to the design, development, production or use of nuclear materials, nuclear facilities, or nuclear weapons, missiles or support of missile projects, or chemical or biological weapons. You understand that certain functionality of the Software, such as encryption or authentication, may be subject to import restrictions in the event you transport the Software from the country of delivery and you are responsible for complying with applicable restrictions.

    The Software and documentation are "commercial items" as that term is defined at 48 C.F.R. 2.101, consisting of "commercial computer software" and "commercial computer software documentation" as such terms are used in 48 C.F.R. 12.212. Consistent with 48 C.F.R. 12.212 and 48 C.F.R. 227.7202-1 through 227.7202-4, all U.S. Government end users acquire the Software and documentation with only those rights set forth herein. Contractor/manufacturer is Dell Products L.P., One Dell Way, Round Rock, Texas 78682.

  9. Limited Warranty Unless otherwise provided in the limited warranties for the Software found at www.dell.com/warranty , Dell solely warrants that it has the right to grant the licenses to the Software, and except as set forth in Sections 13 and 15 below, that such Software will substantially conform in material respects to the functional specifications and current documentation provided by Dell with the Software. This limited warranty is not transferable and extends only for thirty (30) days from the date of delivery of the Software, unless otherwise stated at www.dell.com/warranty. This limited warranty does not cover damages, defects, malfunctions or failures caused by any unauthorized modification by you, or your agents, of the Software; any abuse, misuse or negligent acts of you; modification by you of any interfaces or any software or hardware interfacing with the Software; or any failure by you to follow Dell's installation, operation or maintenance instructions. EXCEPT FOR THE PRECEDING EXPRESS LIMITED WARRANTY, DELL MAKES, AND YOU RECEIVE, NO OTHER WARRANTIES RELATED TO THE SOFTWARE WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR STATUTORY, AND DELL SPECIFICALLY DISCLAIMS ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. DELL DOES NOT WARRANT THAT THE FUNCTIONS OF THE SOFTWARE WILL MEET YOUR REQUIREMENTS OR THAT OPERATION OF THE SOFTWARE WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED OR ERROR FREE. YOU ASSUME RESPONSIBILITY FOR SELECTING THE SOFTWARE AND THE RESULTS ACHIEVED. YOUR SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE REMEDY, AND DELL'S ENTIRE LIABILITY, FOR BREACH OF THE WARRANTIES PROVIDED HEREIN, IS FOR DELL, AT ITS SOLE DISCRETION, TO EITHER USE COMMERCIALLY REASONABLE EFFORTS TO REMEDY ANY NON-CONFORMANCE OR TO PROVIDE A REFUND OF THE LICENSE FEES PAID BY YOU TO DELL FOR THE SOFTWARE. THIS DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTY MAY NOT BE VALID IN SOME JURISDICTIONS AND YOU MAY HAVE WARRANTY RIGHTS UNDER LAW WHICH MAY NOT BE WAIVED OR DISCLAIMED -- ANY SUCH WARRANTY EXTENDS ONLY FOR THIRTY (30) DAYS FROM THE DATE OF DELIVERY OF THE SOFTWARE.
  10. Limitation of Liability DELL WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INCIDENTAL, INDIRECT, PUNITIVE, SPECIAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS EULA AND/OR THE SOFTWARE. DELL SHALL HAVE NO LIABILITY FOR THE FOLLOWING: (A) LOSS OF REVENUE, INCOME, PROFIT, OR SAVINGS, (B) LOST OR CORRUPTED DATA OR SOFTWARE, LOSS OF USE OF SYSTEM(S) OR NETWORK(S), OR THE RECOVERY OF SUCH, (C) LOSS OF BUSINESS OPPORTUNITY, (D) BUSINESS INTERRUPTION OR DOWNTIME, (E) LOSS OF GOODWILL OR REPUTATION, OR (F) SOFTWARE NOT BEING AVAILABLE FOR USE OR THE PROCUREMENT OF SUBSTITUTE SOFTWARE OR GOODS.

    NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING TO THE CONTRARY SET FORTH IN THIS EULA, DELL'S TOTAL LIABILITY FOR ANY AND ALL CLAIMS ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS EULA AND/OR THE SOFTWARE SHALL NOT EXCEED THE TOTAL AMOUNT RECEIVED BY DELL FOR THE PARTICULAR SOFTWARE GIVING RISE TO SUCH CLAIM(S). THIS PARAGRAPH SHALL NOT LIMIT YOUR PAYMENT OBLIGATIONS OR LIABILITY FOR MISAPPROPRIATION OR INFRINGEMENT OF DELL'S INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY.

    The foregoing limitations, exclusions and disclaimers shall apply to any and all claims, regardless of whether the claim(s) for such damages is based in contract, warranty, strict liability, negligence, tort or otherwise. Insofar as applicable law prohibits any limitation on liability herein, the parties agree that such limitation will be automatically modified, but only to the extent so as to make the limitation compliant with applicable law. The parties agree that the limitations on liabilities set forth herein are agreed allocations of risk and such limitations will apply notwithstanding the failure of essential purpose of any limited remedy and even if a party has been advised of the possibility of any such liability.

    DELL SHALL NOT BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR ANY CLAIM BROUGHT MORE THAN TWO YEARS AFTER THE CAUSE OF ACTION FOR SUCH CLAIM FIRST AROSE.

  11. Indemnification. Except where prohibited by applicable law, Dell shall defend and indemnify you against any third-party claim or action that the Software (specifically excluding open source software) infringes or misappropriates that third party's patent, copyright, trade secret, or other intellectual property rights ("Indemnified Claims"). In addition, if Dell receives prompt notice of an Indemnified Claim that, in Dell's reasonable opinion, is likely to result in an adverse ruling, then Dell shall at its sole discretion, (A) obtain a right for you to continue using such Software; (B) modify such Software to be non-infringing; (C) replace such Software with a non-infringing substitute; or (D) provide a reasonable depreciated refund for the allegedly infringing Software. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Dell shall have no obligation under this Section for Indemnified Claims resulting or arising from: (i) modifications of the Software that were not performed by or on behalf of Dell; (ii) your unauthorized use of the Software, or the combination or operation of the Software in connection with a third-party product, software, or service (the combination of which causes the claimed infringement); (iii) your failure to incorporate free Software updates or upgrades that would have avoided the alleged infringement; or (iv) Dell's compliance with your written specifications or directions, including the incorporation of any software or other materials or processes provided by or requested by you (collectively, "Excluded Indemnified Claims"). Dell's duty to indemnify and defend is contingent upon: (a) your providing Dell with prompt written notice of the third-party claim or action, (b) Dell having the right to solely control the defense and settlement of such claim or action, and (c) your cooperation with Dell in defending and resolving such claim or action. This Section states your exclusive remedies for any third-party claim or action, and nothing in this EULA or elsewhere will obligate Dell to provide any greater indemnity to you. You, at your expense, shall defend and indemnify Dell against any claim, action or proceeding brought against Dell which arises from or is in any manner connected with the Excluded Indemnified Claims.
  12. Confidentiality. You agree to: (A) refrain from using Confidential Information except as necessary to exercise the rights herein and (B) use best efforts to preserve and protect the confidentiality of the Confidential Information. "Confidential Information" means any oral, written, graphic or machine-readable information disclosed by Dell that is (i) identified as confidential; (ii) designated in writing to be confidential or proprietary; or (iii) should be reasonably understood to be confidential. Confidential Information includes the Software and its trade secrets, including but not limited to source code, the development status of the Software, the appearance, content and flow of the user interface of the Software, and the content and documentation of the Software. Confidential Information does not include information that is (a) publicly available other than through a breach of this EULA; (b) known to you prior to such disclosure; or (c) subsequently lawfully obtained by you from a third party that has no obligations of confidentiality. You agree that, without Dell's prior written consent, you will not grant access to any Dell Confidential Information to any persons or entities except for your employees and agents who have a business need to have such access and who are obligated to maintain the confidentiality thereof as set forth herein. In some, limited circumstances, Dell may need to engage a third party to fulfill its obligations to you under this EULA. By using this Software you agree that Dell may provide your information to such third party for that purpose. Dell may obtain information related to your use of the Software and you agree that we may use such information in aggregate form in an anonymous manner in support of our marketing activities related to the Software. Any feedback, value added changes or suggestions made by you or other information that is provided to Dell relating to the Software shall be owned by Dell and considered Dell Confidential Information.
  13. Evaluation Licenses. If you have received Software for evaluation purposes ("Evaluation Software"), you may use the Evaluation Software solely for such limited evaluation period and for internal evaluation purposes only. You acknowledge that Dell may terminate your right to evaluate the Evaluation Software, for any or no reason, effective immediately upon notice to you. IN ADDITION, THE EVALUATION SOFTWARE IS PROVIDED TO YOU "AS IS" WITHOUT INDEMNITY OR WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED, STATUTORY, OR OTHERWISE. NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING TO THE CONTRARY IN THIS EULA, DELL BEARS NO LIABILITY FOR ANY DIRECT, INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, PUNITIVE, SPECIAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES RESULTING FROM USE (OR ATTEMPTED USE) OF THE EVALUATION SOFTWARE THROUGH AND AFTER THE EVALUATION PERIOD AND HAS NO DUTY TO PROVIDE SUPPORT TO YOU.
  14. Hosted and Internet-Accessible Software. Some or all of the Software may be remotely hosted or accessible to you through the Internet ("Hosted Software"). In such case, Dell may suspend, terminate, withdraw, or discontinue all or part of the Hosted Software or your access to the Hosted Software upon receipt of a subpoena or law-enforcement request, or when Dell believes, in its sole discretion, that you have breached any term of this EULA or are involved in any fraudulent, misleading, or illegal activities. Dell may modify the Hosted Software at any time with or without prior notice to you. Dell may perform scheduled or unscheduled repairs or maintenance, or remotely patch or upgrade the Hosted Software installed on its and your system(s), which may temporarily degrade the quality of the Hosted Software or result in a partial or complete outage of the Hosted Software. Updates, patches or alerts may be delivered from Dell servers, which may be located outside of your country. Dell provides no assurance that you will receive advance notification of such activities or that your use of the Hosted Software will be uninterrupted or error-free.
  15. Open Source Software. A portion of the Software may contain or consist of open source software, which you may use under the terms and conditions of the specific license under which the open source software is distributed. THIS OPEN SOURCE SOFTWARE IS PROVIDED BY DELL "AS IS" WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY, EXPRESS, IMPLIED, OR OTHERWISE, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO THE IMPLIED WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING TO THE CONTRARY IN THIS EULA, AS IT RELATES TO ANY AND ALL CLAIMS ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH OPEN SOURCE SOFTWARE, DELL SHALL HAVE NO LIABILITY FOR ANY DIRECT, INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, PUNITIVE, SPECIAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES. Under certain open source software licenses, you are entitled to obtain the corresponding source files. You may find corresponding source files for the Software at http://opensource.dell.com or other locations that may be specified to you by Dell.
  16. Right to Preliminary and Injunctive Relief. You agree that money damages would be an inadequate remedy for Dell in the event of a breach or threatened breach by you of the provisions set forth in this EULA; therefore, you agree that in the event of a breach or threatened breach of any such provisions, Dell may, in addition to any other remedies to which it is entitled, be entitled to such preliminary or injunctive relief (including an order prohibiting you from taking actions in breach of such provisions) and specific performance as may be appropriate to preserve all of Dell's rights. All rights and remedies afforded Dell by law shall be cumulative and not exclusive.
  17. Choice of Law and Language. This EULA shall be governed by the laws of the State of Texas, USA, to the exclusion of the UN Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods. You acknowledge that the headquarters of the Dell family of companies is located in Texas, and that the software licensed under this EULA and the related products marketed in connection with such software were in substantial part conceived, developed, and marketed by Dell personnel in Texas. Further, you acknowledge, agree, and stipulate that the laws of the State of Texas bear a substantial relationship to this EULA and that the selection of Texas law to govern this EULA and the license of the Software hereunder is reasonable and appropriate, and you consent to the selection of such law to govern this EULA and the relationship of the parties hereto. This EULA has been agreed only in the English language, which version of this EULA shall be controlling regardless of whether any translations of this EULA have been prepared or exchanged. You acknowledge and represent that you have carefully reviewed this EULA with the involvement and assistance of your employees, advisors, and/or legal counsel fluent in the English language, that you have consulted with local legal counsel and counsel competent to render advice with respect to transactions governed by the law applicable to this EULA, that you have no questions regarding the meaning or effect of any of this EULA's terms, and that you have obtained high-quality translations of this EULA for use by you or any of your team who are not fluent in the English language, with the understanding that you alone shall bear the risk of any misunderstandings that may arise as a result of such translation. All communications in connection with this EULA shall be in the English language.

    Les parties ont demandé que cette convention ainsi que tous les documents qui s'y rattachent soient rédigés en anglais.

  18. Dispute Resolution and Binding Arbitration. ANY CLAIM, DISPUTE, OR CONTROVERSY (WHETHER IN CONTRACT, TORT, OR OTHERWISE, WHETHER PREEXISTING, PRESENT OR FUTURE, AND INCLUDING STATUTORY, COMMON LAW, INTENTIONAL TORT AND EQUITABLE CLAIMS) BETWEEN YOU AND DELL arising out of or in connection with this EULA, or the breach, termination or validity thereof shall be finally settled under the Rules of Arbitration of the International Chamber of Commerce ("ICC") by one or more arbitrators with expertise in software licensing appointed in accordance with such rules. The arbitration shall be conducted in the English language. The place of the arbitration shall be a commercial center reasonably chosen by the arbitration panel in a third country so as to ensure that the award resulting from the arbitration shall be of an international character and enforceable under the New York Convention on the Recognition and Enforcement of Foreign Arbitral Awards. The arbitration panel shall be empowered to grant whatever relief would be available in court, including without limitation preliminary relief, injunctive relief, and specific performance. Any award of the arbitration panel shall be final and binding immediately when rendered, and judgment on the award may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction. Neither you nor Dell shall be entitled to join, consolidate, or include any claims belonging to or alleged or arising from, by, or on behalf of any third party to an arbitration brought hereunder. The individual (non-class) nature of this dispute resolution provision goes to the essence of the parties' dispute resolution agreement, and if found unenforceable, the entire arbitration and dispute resolution provision shall be void. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Dell may apply to any relevant government agency or any court of competent jurisdiction to preserve its rights under this EULA and to obtain any injunctive or preliminary relief, or any award of specific performance, to which it may be entitled, either against you or against a non-party; provided, however, that no such administrative or judicial authority shall have the right or power to render a judgment or award (or to enjoin the rendering of an arbitral award) for damages that may be due to or from either party under this EULA, which right and power shall be reserved exclusively to an arbitration panel proceeding in accordance herewith.
  19. No Waiver. No waiver of breach or failure to exercise any option, right, or privilege under the terms of this EULA on any occasion shall be construed to be a waiver of a subsequent breach or right to exercise any option, right, or privilege.
  20. Force Majeure. Dell shall not be responsible for any delay or failure in performance of any part of this EULA to the extent that such delay or failure is caused by fire, flood, explosion, war, embargo, government requirement, civil, or military authority, act of God, act or omission of carriers, failure of the Internet or other similar causes beyond its control.
  21. No Assignment. Except as set forth herein, you may not assign or transfer your interests, rights or obligations under this EULA by written agreement, merger, consolidation, operation of law or otherwise, without the prior written consent of an authorized executive officer of Dell. Any attempt to assign this EULA by you without such prior written consent from Dell shall be null and void.
  22. Entire Agreement. Unless you have entered into another written agreement with respect to the Software which has been signed by you and an authorized representative of Dell and which conflicts with the terms of this EULA, you agree that this EULA supersedes all prior written or oral agreements, warranties or representations, including any and all other click-wrap, shrink-wrap or similar licenses or agreements, with respect to the Software. No amendment to or modification of this EULA, in whole or in part, will be valid or binding unless it is in writing and executed by authorized representatives of both parties. If any term of this EULA is found to be invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions will remain effective. You agree that any principle of construction or rule of law that provides that an agreement shall be construed against the drafter shall not apply to the terms and conditions of this EULA.
  23. Notices. Notice to Dell under this EULA must be in writing and sent to the address below or to such other address (including facsimile or e-mail) as specified in writing, and will be effective upon receipt.
