5. FCC Compliance and Advisory Statement. 

The Keyboard complies with Part

15 of the Rules and Regulations of the Federal Communications Commission
(“FCC Rules”). Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (a) the
Keyboard may not cause harmful interference, and (b) the Keyboard must
accept any interference received, including interference that may cause
undesired operation. The Keyboard has been tested and found to comply with
the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules.
These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful
interference in a residential installation. The Keyboard generates, uses, and
can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed or used in accordance
with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications.
There is no guarantee that interference will not occur in particular installations.
If the Keyboard causes harmful interference to radio or television reception,
which can be determined by turning the Keyboard off and on, the user is
encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following
measures:

(i)  Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.

(ii)  Increase the separation between the Keyboard and receiver.

(iii) Connect the Keyboard into an outlet on a circuit different from that to

which the receiver is connected.

(iv) Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.

6. Canadian Interference - Causing Equipment Regulations.

This Class B digital

apparatus meets all requirements of the Canadian Interference Causing
Equipment Resolution; provided, however, changes or modifications not
expressly approved by the manufacturer responsible for compliance could void
the user’s authority to operate the Keyboard.

7. Miscellaneous. 

This Agreement represents the complete and exclusive

statement of the agreements between Goldtouch

®

and the customer

concerning the Keyboard. If any provision of this Agreement is held to be
unenforceable for any reason, such provision shall be reformed only to the
extent necessary to make it enforceable, and such decision shall not affect the
enforceability (a) of such provision under other circumstances, or (b) of the
remaining provisions hereof. Heading shall not be considered in interpreting
this Agreement. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed under the
internal laws of the State of California, except as governed by U.S. Federal
laws. This Agreement will not be governed by the United Nations Convention of
Contracts for the International Sale of Goods, the application of which is
hereby expressly excluded. THE ACCEPTANCE OF ANY PURCHASE ORDER
PLACED BY YOU IS EXPRESSLY MADE CONDITIONAL ON YOUR ASSENT TO
THE TERMS SET FORTH HEREIN, AND NOT THOSE IN YOUR PURCHASE ORDER.

8. Export. 

You may not download or otherwise export or re-export any software

created by Goldtouch (the “Software”) or any underlying information or
technology except in full compliance with all applicable laws and regulations in
the country in which you acquired the Software. None of the Software or
underlying information or technology may be downloaded or otherwise
