Appendix F

Software License Agreement

Dual-Band Wireless-N ExpressCard

If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation 

7. 

of  patent  infringement  or  for  any  other  reason  (not 
limited  to  patent  issues),  conditions  are  imposed  on 
you (whether by court order, agreement or otherwise) 
that contradict the conditions of this License, they do 
not excuse you from the conditions of this License. If 
you cannot distribute so as to satisfy simultaneously 
your  obligations  under  this  License  and  any  other 
pertinent  obligations,  then  as  a  consequence  you 
may  not  distribute  the  Program  at  all.  For  example, 
if  a  patent  license  would  not  permit  royalty-free 
redistribution of the Program by all those who receive 
copies directly or indirectly through you, then the only 
way you could satisfy both it and this License would be 
to refrain entirely from distribution of the Program. 
If  any  portion  of  this  section  is  held  invalid  or 
unenforceable  under  any  particular  circumstance, 
the  balance  of  the  section  is  intended  to  apply  and 
the  section  as  a  whole  is  intended  to  apply  in  other 
circumstances. 

It is not the purpose of this section to induce you to 
infringe any patents or other property right claims or 
to contest validity of any such claims; this section has 
the sole purpose of protecting the integrity of the free 
software  distribution  system,  which  is  implemented 
by  public  license  practices.  Many  people  have 
made  generous  contributions  to  the  wide  range  of 
software  distributed  through  that  system  in  reliance 
on  consistent  application  of  that  system;  it  is  up  to 
the  author/donor  to  decide  if  he  or  she  is  willing  to 
distribute  software  through  any  other  system  and  a 
licensee cannot impose that choice. 

This  section  is  intended  to  make  thoroughly  clear 
what is believed to be a consequence of the rest of this 
License. 

If  the  distribution  and/or  use  of  the  Program  is 

8. 

restricted in certain countries either by patents or by 
copyrighted  interfaces,  the  original  copyright  holder 
who places the Program under this License may add an 
explicit geographical distribution limitation excluding 
those countries, so that distribution is permitted only 
in or among countries not thus excluded. In such case, 
this License incorporates the limitation as if written in 
the body of this License. 
The  Free  Software  Foundation  may  publish  revised 

9. 

and/or  new  versions  of  the  General  Public  License 
from time to time. Such new versions will be similar in 
spirit to the present version, but may differ in detail to 
address new problems or concerns. 
Each version is given a distinguishing version number. 
If  the  Program  specifies  a  version  number  of  this 
License which applies to it and “any later version”, you 
have the option of following the terms and conditions 
either of that version or of any later version published 
by the Free Software Foundation. If the Program does 

not  specify  a  version  number  of  this  License,  you 
may  choose  any  version  ever  published  by  the  Free 
Software Foundation. 

If  you  wish  to  incorporate  parts  of  the  Program  into 

10. 

other free programs whose distribution conditions are 
different, write to the author to ask for permission. For 
software  which  is  copyrighted  by  the  Free  Software 
Foundation, write to the Free Software Foundation; we 
sometimes make exceptions for this. Our decision will 
be guided by the two goals of preserving the free status 
of all derivatives of our free software and of promoting 
the sharing and reuse of software generally. 

NO WARRANTY

BECAUSE THE PROGRAM IS LICENSED FREE OF CHARGE, 

11. 

THERE IS NO WARRANTY FOR THE PROGRAM, TO THE 
EXTENT  PERMITTED  BY  APPLICABLE  LAW.  EXCEPT 
WHEN OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT 
HOLDERS  AND/OR  OTHER  PARTIES  PROVIDE  THE 
PROGRAM  “AS  IS”  WITHOUT  WARRANTY  OF  ANY 
KIND,  EITHER  EXPRESSED  OR  IMPLIED,  INCLUDING, 
BUT  NOT  LIMITED TO, THE  IMPLIED  WARRANTIES  OF 
MERCHANTABILITY  AND  FITNESS  FOR  A  PARTICULAR 
PURPOSE. THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY AND 
PERFORMANCE  OF  THE  PROGRAM  IS  WITH  YOU. 
SHOULD  THE  PROGRAM  PROVE  DEFECTIVE,  YOU 
ASSUME  THE  COST  OF  ALL  NECESSARY  SERVICING, 
REPAIR OR CORRECTION. 
IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR 

12. 

AGREED TO IN WRITING WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, 
OR  ANY  OTHER  PARTY  WHO  MAY  MODIFY  AND/OR 
REDISTRIBUTE THE PROGRAM AS PERMITTED ABOVE, 
BE  LIABLE  TO  YOU  FOR  DAMAGES,  INCLUDING  ANY 
GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL 
DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THE USE OR INABILITY TO 
USE THE PROGRAM (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO 
LOSS OF DATA OR DATA BEING RENDERED INACCURATE 
OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY YOU OR THIRD PARTIES OR 
A FAILURE OF THE PROGRAM TO OPERATE WITH ANY 
OTHER PROGRAMS), EVEN IF SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER 
PARTY  HAS  BEEN  ADVISED  OF  THE  POSSIBILITY  OF 
SUCH DAMAGES.
