IBM license agreement for Machine Code
Regardless of how you acquire (electronically, preloaded, on media or otherwise)
BIOS, Utilities, Diagnostics, Device Drivers, firmware, or Microcode (collectively
called “Machine Code”), you accept the terms of this Agreement by your initial use
of a Machine or Machine Code. The term “Machine” means an IBM Machine, its
features, conversions, upgrades, elements or accessories, or any combination of
them. Acceptance of these license terms authorizes you to use Machine Code with
the specific product for which it is provided.
International Business Machines Corporation or one of its subsidiaries (“IBM”), or an
IBM supplier, owns copyrights in Machine Code.
IBM grants you a nonexclusive license to use Machine Code only in conjunction
with a Machine. As the rightful possessor of a Machine, you may make a
reasonable number of copies of Machine Code as necessary for backup,
configuration, and restoration of the Machine. You must reproduce the copyright
notice and any other legend of ownership on each copy of Machine Code you
make.
You may transfer possession of Machine Code and its media to another party only
with the transfer of the Machine on which the Machine Code is used. If you do so,
you must give the other party a copy of these terms and provide all user
documentation to that party. When you do so, you must destroy all your copies of
Machine Code.
Your license for Machine Code terminates when you no longer rightfully possess the
Machine.
No other rights under this license are granted.
You may not, for example, do any of the following:
1. Otherwise copy, display, transfer, adapt, modify, or distribute in any form,
Machine Code, except as IBM may authorize in a Machine’s user
documentation.
2. Reverse assemble, reverse compile, or otherwise translate the Machine Code,
unless expressly permitted by applicable law without the possibility of
contractual waiver;
3. Sublicense or assign the license for the Machine Code; or
4. Lease the Machine Code or any copy of it.
The terms of IBM’s Machine warranty, which is incorporated into this Agreement by
reference, apply to Machine Code. Please refer to that warranty for any questions
or claims regarding performance or liability for Machine Code.
