of any open source software contained in Fortinet’s Products which is discussed in detail in section 15 below, and the term “Software” includes any accompany-
ing documentation, any updates and enhancements of the software or firmware provided to you by Fortinet, at its option. Fortinet grants to you a non-transferable
(except as provided in section 5 (“Transfer”) and section 15 (“Open Source Software”) below), non-exclusive, revocable (in the event of your failure to comply with
these terms or in the event Fortinet is not properly paid for the applicable Product) license to use the Software solely for your internal business purposes (provided,
if a substantial portion of your business is to provide managed service provider services to your end-customers, you may use the Software embedded in FortiGate

notwithstanding anything to the contrary, all licenses of Software to be installed on blades, CPUs or databases are licensed on a per single blade, solely for one
