License and Warranty
VC-20 AMBE™ Vocoder Board User’s Manual
USER's limitations, duties and obligations regarding nondisclosure
and copying of the AMBE™ Software. Proprietary Information shall
be used only by employees of END USER and only at the Designated
Site, except as provided under this agreement.
6.4
END USER shall have no obligations for disclosure or use of
Proprietary Information which: (i) is already known to END USER, at
time of disclosure by DVSI; (ii) is or becomes publicly known through
publication, inspection of product or otherwise through no wrongful
act of END USER; (iii) is received from a third party without
restriction and without breach of this Agreement; (iv) is independently
developed by END USER; (v) is disclosed to a third party by or on
behalf of DVSI without restriction; or (vi) is approved for release or
use by written authorization of DVSI.
6.5
Notwithstanding any termination pursuant to Section 3.0, the
obligations set forth in this Section 6.0 shall survive termination of this
Agreement.
7.0 Limited Warranty
7.1
DVSI warrants the Voice Codec and the AMBE™ Software to
be free from defects in materials and workmanship under normal use
for a period of ninety (90) days from the date of delivery. DVSI
further warrants that the Voice Codec and the AMBE™ Software
operate in accordance with the written specifications delivered to END
USER with the Voice Codec.
7.2
Except as stated in Section 7.1, the Voice Codec and
AMBE™ Software are provided "as is" without warranty of any kind.
DVSI does not warrant, guarantee or make any representations
regarding the use, or the results of the use, of the Voice Codec or
AMBE™ Software with respect to its correctness, accuracy, reliability,
currentness or otherwise. The entire risk as to the results and
performance of the Voice Codec or AMBE™ Software is assumed by
the END USER. After expiration of the warranty period, END USER,
and not DVSI or its employees, assumes the entire cost of any
servicing, repair or correction of the Voice Codec or the AMBE™
Software.
7.3
DVSI warrants that it has the right to enter into this
Agreement and to grant a license to use the AMBE™ Software to END
USER.
7.4
Except as specifically set forth in this Section 7.0, DVSI
makes no express or implied warranties including, without limitation,
the warranties of merchantability or fitness for a particular purpose or
arising from a course of dealing, usage or trade practice, with respect
to the Voice Codec or AMBE™ Software. Some states do not allow
the exclusion of implied warranties, so the above exclusion may not
apply to END USER. No oral or written information or advice given
by DVSI or its employees shall create a warranty or in any way
increase the scope of this warranty, and END USER may not rely on
any such information or advice. The limited warranties under this
section 7.0 give END USER specific legal rights, and END USER may
have other rights which vary from state to state.
8.0 Limitation of Liability
8.1 In no event shall DVSI be liable for any special, incidental,
indirect or consequential damages resulting from the use or
performance of the Voice Codec or VC-20 AMBE™ Vocoder Board
whether based on an action in contract, tort (including negligence) or
otherwise (including, without limitation, damages for loss of business
profits, business interruption, and loss of business information), even if
DVSI or any DVSI representative has been advised of the possibility of
such damages.
8.2
Because some states do not allow the exclusion or limitation of
liability for consequential or incidental damages, the above limitations
may not apply to END USER.
8.3
DVSI's maximum liability for damages arising under this
Agreement shall be limited to 20% (twenty percent) of the fees paid by
END USER for the particular Voice Codec or VC-20 AMBE™
Vocoder Board which caused the damages or that is the subject matter
of, or is directly related to, the cause of action.
9.0 Taxes
9.1
All payments required under Section 4.0 or otherwise under
this Agreement are exclusive of taxes and END USER agrees to bear
and be responsible for the payment of all such taxes (except for taxes
based upon DVSI's income) including, but not limited to, all sales, use,
rental receipt, personal property or other taxes which may be levied or
assessed in connection with this Agreement.
10.0 Export
10.1
United States export laws and regulations prohibit the
exportation of certain products or technical data received from DVSI
under this Agreement to certain countries except under a special
validated license. As of May 20, 1996 the restricted countries are:
Libya, Cuba, North Korea, Iraq, Serbia, Montenegro, and Iran. The
END USER hereby gives its assurance to DVSI that it will not
knowingly, unless prior authorization is obtained from the appropriate
U.S. export authority, export or re-export, directly or indirectly to any
of the restricted countries any products or technical data received from
DVSI under this Agreement in violation of said United States Export
Laws and Regulations. DVSI neither represents that a license is not
required nor that, if required, it will be issued by the U.S. Department
of Commerce. Licensee shall assume complete and sole responsibility
for obtaining any licenses required for export purposes.
11.0 Governing Law
11.1
This Agreement is made under and shall be governed by and
construed in accordance with the laws of the Commonwealth of
Massachusetts, except that body of law governing conflicts of law. If
any provision of this Agreement shall be held unenforceable by a court
of competent jurisdiction, that provision shall be enforced to the
maximum extent permissible, and the remaining provisions of this
Agreement shall remain in full force and effect.
