2. Agreement Structure
This Agreement includes Part 1 - General Terms, Part 2 - Country-unique Terms (if any), the LI and is the complete agreement between Licensee and Lenovo regarding the use of the Program. It replaces any prior oral or written communications between Licensee and Lenovo concerning Licensee’s use of the Program. The terms of Part 2 may replace or modify those of Part 1. To the extent of any conflict, the LI prevails over both Parts.
3. License Grant
The Program is owned by Lenovo or a Lenovo supplier, and is copyrighted and licensed, not sold.
Lenovo grants Licensee a nonexclusive license to 1) use the Program up to the Authorized Use specified in the invoice, 2) make and install copies to support such Authorized Use, and 3) make a backup copy, all provided that:
a. Licensee has lawfully obtained the Program and complies with the terms of this Agreement;
b. the backup copy does not execute unless the backed-up Program cannot execute;
c. Licensee does not remove any copyright notices or other legends of ownership from any copy or partial copy of the Program;

For purposes of this Item “f,” a “Supporting Program” is a Program that is part of another Lenovo Program (“Principal Program”) and identified as a Supporting Program in the Principal Program’s LI. (To obtain a separate license to a Supporting Program without these restrictions, Licensee should contact the party from whom Licensee obtained the Supporting Program.)
This license applies to each copy of the Program that Licensee makes.
3.1 Trade-ups, Updates, Fixes, and Patches
3.1.1 Trade-ups
If the Program is replaced by a trade-up Program, the replaced Program’s license is promptly terminated.
3.1.2 Updates, Fixes, and Patches
When Licensee obtains an update, fix, or patch to a Program, Licensee accepts any additional or different terms that are applicable to such update, fix, or patch that are specified in its LI. If no additional or different terms are provided, then the update, fix, or patch is subject solely to this Agreement. If the Program is replaced by an update, Licensee agrees to promptly discontinue use of the replaced Program.
3.2 Fixed Term Licenses

This Agreement is effective until terminated.
Lenovo may terminate Licensee’s license if Licensee fails to comply with the terms of this Agreement.
If the license is terminated for any reason by either party, Licensee agrees to promptly discontinue use of and destroy all of Licensee’s copies of the Program. Any terms of this Agreement that by their nature extend beyond termination of this Agreement remain in effect until fulfilled, and apply to both parties’ respective successors and assignees.
4. Charges
Charges, if any, are based on Authorized Use obtained, which is specified in the invoice. Lenovo does not give credits or refunds for charges already due or paid, except as specified elsewhere in this Agreement or as specified by applicable law.
If Licensee wishes to increase its Authorized Use, Licensee must notify Lenovo or an authorized Lenovo reseller in advance and pay any applicable charges.
5. Taxes
If any authority imposes on the Program a duty, tax, levy, or fee, excluding those based on Lenovo’s net income, then Licensee agrees to pay that amount, as specified in an invoice, or supply exemption documentation. Licensee is responsible for any personal property taxes for the Program from the date that Licensee obtains it. If any authority imposes a customs duty, tax, levy, or fee for the import into or the export, transfer, access, or use of the Program outside the country in which the original Licensee was granted the license, then Licensee agrees that it is responsible for, and will pay, any amount imposed.
6. Money-back Guarantee
If Licensee is dissatisfied with the Program for any reason and is the original Licensee, Licensee may terminate the license and obtain a refund of the amount Licensee paid for the Program, provided that Licensee returns the Program to the party from whom Licensee obtained it within 30 days of the invoice date. If the license is for a fixed term that is subject to renewal, then Licensee may obtain a refund only if the Program is returned within the first 30 days of the initial term. If Licensee downloaded the Program, Licensee should contact the party from whom Licensee obtained it for instructions on how to obtain the refund.
7. Program Transfer
Licensee may transfer the Program and all of Licensee’s license rights and obligations to another party only if that party agrees to the terms of this Agreement. If the license is terminated for any reason by either party, Licensee is prohibited from transferring the Program to another party and may not transfer any portion of 1) the Program or 2) the Program’s Authorized Use. When Licensee transfers the Program, Licensee must also transfer a hard copy of this Agreement, including the LI. Immediately after the transfer, Licensee’s license terminates

8. Open Source and Other Software
Portion(s) of the Software provided hereunder may be identified as being licensed under a particular open source license ("Open Source License"). To the extent that the terms of this Agreement conflict with the terms of such Open Source License, then the terms of such Open Source License shall control for such open source software. For clarity, in the event that all or any portion of the Software provided hereunder does not reference, or otherwise indicate, such Open Source License, this Agreement shall control.

9. No Warranties
SUBJECT TO ANY STATUTORY WARRANTIES THAT CANNOT BE EXCLUDED, LENOVO MAKES NO WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, REGARDING THE PROGRAM, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS OF MERCHANTABILITY, SATISFACTORY QUALITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND TITLE, AND ANY WARRANTY OR CONDITION OF NON-INFRINGEMENT.
SOME STATES OR JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OF EXPRESS OR IMPLIED WARRANTIES, SO THE ABOVE EXCLUSION MAY NOT APPLY TO LICENSEE. IN THAT EVENT, SUCH WARRANTIES ARE LIMITED IN DURATION TO THE MINIMUM PERIOD REQUIRED BY LAW. NO WARRANTIES APPLY AFTER THAT PERIOD. SOME STATES OR JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW LIMITATIONS ON HOW LONG AN IMPLIED WARRANTY LASTS, SO THE ABOVE LIMITATION MAY NOT APPLY TO LICENSEE.

10. Licensee Data and Databases
To assist Licensee in isolating the cause of a problem with the Program, Lenovo may request that Licensee 1) allow Lenovo to remotely access Licensee's system or 2) send Licensee information or system data to Lenovo. However, Lenovo is not obligated to provide such assistance unless Lenovo and Licensee enter a separate written agreement under which Lenovo agrees to provide to Licensee that type of technical support, which is beyond Lenovo’s obligations in this Agreement. In any event, Lenovo uses information about errors and problems to improve its products and services, and assist with its provision of related support offerings. For these purposes, Lenovo may use Lenovo entities and subcontractors (including in one or more countries other than the one in which Licensee is located), and Licensee authorizes Lenovo to do so.
Licensee remains responsible for 1) any data and the content of any database Licensee makes available to Lenovo, 2) the selection and implementation of procedures and controls regarding access, security, encryption, use, and transmission of data (including any personally-identifiable data), and 3) backup and recovery of any database and any stored data. Licensee will not send or provide Lenovo access to any personally-identifiable information, whether in data or any other form, and will be responsible for reasonable costs and other amounts that Lenovo may incur relating to any such information mistakenly provided to Lenovo or the loss or disclosure of such information by Lenovo, including those arising out of any third party claims.
11. Limitation of Liability
The limitations and exclusions in this Section 11 (Limitation of Liability) apply to the full extent they are not prohibited by applicable law without the possibility of contractual waiver.
11.1 Items for Which Lenovo May Be Liable
Circumstances may arise where, because of a default on Lenovo’s part or other liability, Licensee is entitled to recover damages from Lenovo. Regardless of the basis on which Licensee is entitled to claim damages from Lenovo (including fundamental breach, negligence, misrepresentation, or other contract or tort claim), Lenovo’s entire liability for all claims in the aggregate arising from or related to each Program or otherwise arising under this Agreement will not exceed the amount of any 1) damages for bodily injury (including death) and damage to real property and tangible personal property and 2) other actual direct damages up to the charges (if the Program is subject to fixed term charges, up to twelve months‘ charges) Licensee paid for the Program that is the subject of the claim.

c. LOST PROFITS, BUSINESS, REVENUE, GOODWILL, OR ANTICIPATED SAVINGS.

12. Compliance Verification
For purposes of this Section 12 (Compliance Verification), "ILAN Program Terms" means this Agreement (the “International License Agreement for Non-Warranted Programs” or “ILAN”) and applicable amendments and transaction documents provided by Lenovo, including but not limited to any policies concerning backup, sub-capacity pricing, and migration.

12.1 Verification Process
Licensee agrees to create, retain, and provide to Lenovo and its auditors accurate written records, systemtool outputs, and other system information sufficient to provide auditable verification that Licensee’s use of all Programs is in compliance with the ILAN Program Terms, including, without limitation, all of Lenovo’s applicable licensing and pricing qualification terms. Licensee is responsible for 1) ensuring that it does not exceed its Authorized Use, and 2) remaining in compliance with ILAN Program Terms.
Upon reasonable notice, Lenovo may verify Licensee’s compliance with ILAN Program Terms at all sites and for all environments in which Licensee uses (for any purpose) Programs subject to ILAN Program Terms. Such verification will be conducted in a manner that reasonably minimizes disruption to Licensee’s business, and may be conducted on Licensee’s premises, during normal business hours. Lenovo may use an independent auditor to assist with such verification, provided Lenovo has a written confidentiality agreement in place with such auditor.
12.2 Resolution
Lenovo will notify Licensee in writing if any such verification indicates that Licensee has used any Program in excess of its Authorized Use or is otherwise not in compliance with the ILAN Program Terms. Licensee agrees to promptly pay directly to Lenovo the charges that Lenovo specifies in an invoice for 1) any such excess use, 2) support for such excess use for the lesser of the duration of such excess use or two years, and 3) any additional charges and other liabilities determined as a result of such verification.

g. Unless otherwise required by applicable law without the possibility of contractual waiver or limitation: 1) neither party will bring a legal action, regardless of form, for any claim arising out of or related to this Agreement more than two years after the cause of action arose; and 2) upon the expiration of such time limit, any such claim and all respective rights related to the claim lapse.
h. Neither Licensee nor Lenovo is responsible for failure to fulfill any obligations due to causes beyond its control.
i. Lenovo may assign this Agreement on written notice to Licensee;
