those principles. Consistent with that belief, when you no longer have the DVD in
your possession, or when some other factor that led you to believe it was “fair use” is
no longer valid, then destroy the copy on the hard drive. If you do not believe that
the law permits use of the Vision System to store content from a DVD (or other me

dia) on the hard drive, then do not use the Vision System to do so. In this End User
License Agreement Escient is not advocating a position on the applicability of the
fair use doctrine or other theories discussed here; it is providing a tool for the user
and is pointing out that it is the user’s responsibility to determine when it can use
certain features on the Vision System that involve copying of content.

In order to protect the integrity of certain third party content, Escient or its

impair the software (and any other software on your Vision System which specifi-
cally depends on the software) including disabling your ability to copy and/or play
“secure” or other designated content, i.e. content protected by digital rights man-
agement. In such an event, Escient and/or its suppliers shall use reasonable efforts
to post notices on Escient’s web site explaining the security update and providing
instructions to end-users for obtaining new versions or further updates of the Soft-
ware. ESCIENT MAY BE REQUIRED TO, OR MAY IN ITS DISCRETION DECIDE TO, ADD,
DELETE, MODIFY OR OTHERWISE CHANGE CERTAIN FEATURES OR FUNCTIONALITY
OF THE VISION SYSTEM AND MAY DO SO VIA AUTOMATIC UPDATES OR OTHERWISE
SO LONG AS IT IS PERMITTED TO MAKE SUCH CHANGES UNDER THE LAW.
