This license must be included with all copies of the Software, and may not be modified from its original format as created by the Licensor. The Software may not be distributed subject to any other license. 5. This License is effective until terminated. Your rights under this License will terminate automatically without notice from Licensor or if you fail to comply with any term(s) of this License. Upon the termination of this License, you shall cease all use of the Software and destroy all copies of it, whether full or partial. 6. Selling or charging a fee for the Software is prohibited, although a fee may be charged for the act of transferring a copy and/or for the distribution media, but not for the Software itself. 7.

You expressly acknowledge and agree that use of the software is at your sole risk and that the entire risk as to satisfactory quality, performance, accuracy and effort is with you. Licensor does not warrant against interference with your enjoyment of the software, that the functions contained in the software will meet your requirements, that the operation of the software will be uninterrupted or error-free, or that defects in the software will be corrected. Should the software prove defective, you assume the entire cost of all necessary servicing, repair or correction. 9. THE SOFTWARE IS PROVIDED "AS IS," WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO THE WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE AND NONINFRINGEMENT.

THIS SOFTWARE IS NOT INTENDED FOR USE IN ANY APPLICATION IN WHICH THE FAILURE OF THE SOFTWARE COULD LEAD TO DEATH, PERSONAL INJURY OR SEVERE PHYSICAL OR ENVIRONMENTAL DAMAGE. 12. SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OF IMPLIED WARRANTIES, LIABILITY OR LIMITATIONS ON APPLICABLE STATUTORY RIGHTS OF A CONSUMER, SO THE ABOVE EXCLUSIONS AND LIMITATIONS MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU. IF SUCH EXCLUSIONS FROM LIABILITY APPLY TO YOU, DO NOT USE THIS SOFTWARE. 13. In no event shall Licensor's total liability to you for all damages exceed the amount of $50.00. The foregoing limitations will apply even if the above stated remedy fails in its essential purpose. 14. This License constitutes the entire agreement between the parties with respect to the use of the Software licensed hereunder and supersedes all prior or contemporaneous understandings regarding such subject matter. No amendment to or modification of this License will be binding unless in writing and signed by Licensor. Any translation of this License is done for local requirements and in the event of a dispute between the English and any non-English versions, the English version of this License shall govern. 15. This License will be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the Netherlands, as applied to agreements entered into and to be performed entirely within the Netherlands between Dutch residents. This License shall not be governed by the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods, the application of which is expressly excluded. 16.
