1. Definitions: Licensed Program means whichever features of
the software are enabled by the software protection mechanism
corresponding to the configuration you have licensed. Software
means any of the software provided under this Agreement on DVD,
via a web-site, or on another medium or through another delivery
mechanism, including any non-subscribed or unenabled features
thereof, and any associated user documentation; excepting the
portions identified in particular files which components are
subject to the applicable license agreement(s) set forth therein.
Support means any services provided to you by Altera, its
subsidiaries, distributors, and sales representatives in
responding to email, telephone or other inquiries from you for
maintenance, technical, or other support.
2. License to the Licensed Program: By this Agreement, ALTERA
grants to you a non-exclusive license to use the Licensed Program
(and any updates thereof for which you have paid a subscription
fee) on the terms and conditions outlined in this Agreement. Any
features for which you have not paid a subscription fee or any
other unenabled features of the Licensed Program (unless ALTERA
provides a software protection enabling key or code for such
unenabled features) are unlicensed and you agree not to use or
access such features. Certain licenses to the Licensed Program
are time limited, to the extent designated by ALTERA and as may
be set forth in the feature line license key that is issued, and
will automatically time-out at the end of the designated period.
The source code of the Software, and the algorithms, concepts,
techniques, methods and processes embodied therein, constitute
trade secrets and confidential and proprietary information of
ALTERA and its licensors, and LICENSEE shall not access or use
such trade secrets and information in any manner, except to the
extent expressly permitted herein. ALTERA and its licensors
retain all title, copyright, patent and other proprietary rights
therein. LICENSEE agrees not to remove or obscure any copyright,
trademark or patent notices found in or on any user documentation
or the Software.
Pursuant to this Agreement, you may: (a) use the Licensed Program
on a single computer (or, if you have purchased a floating node
license, the number of concurrent users for which you have
obtained licenses from ALTERA may use the Licensed Program on
networked workstations); (b) use the Licensed Program for the
sole purpose of creating, simulating, verifying, placing and
routing, and programming designs on logic devices manufactured by
ALTERA and sold by ALTERA or its authorized distributors,
although if you have obtained the Licensed Program through
Altera's University Program or obtained a Student Version, you
are only permitted to use the Licensed Program for educational
and academic purposes only and expressly excluding any commercial
purposes; (c) you may only use simulation model output files
generated by the "Simgen" feature of the Licensed Software for
simulation purposes and expressly not for synthesis or any other
purposes; (d) make one copy of the Licensed Program in any
computer-readable or printed form for back-up or archival
purposes or as otherwise permitted under this Agreement; and (e)
modify the Licensed Program and/or merge it into another program
solely in order to facilitate the management of software
licensing controls of the Licensed Program and third party
software licensed using Flex LM software, provided all
intellectual property notices including copyright and restricted
rights notices appearing on the Licensed Program are included on
any such copy, modification, or portion merged or combined with
the other program. Any copy or portion of the Licensed Program
merged into another program will continue to be subject to the
terms and conditions of this Agreement. Your end customers may
use ALTERA programmable logic devices that have been programmed
with the Licensed Program.
The Licensed Program may be transferred to another party provided
the other party agrees to accept the terms and conditions of this
Agreement and you notify ALTERA in writing of the identity of the
transferee. If you transfer the Licensed Program, you must at the
same time either transfer all copies, whether in printed or
computer-readable form, to the same party or destroy any copies
not transferred, including all portions of the Licensed Program
contained or merged into another program, and certify the same to
ALTERA. If you have purchased a floating node license as provided
above, you may also copy the Licensed Program onto another
computer (or access it through networked workstations) for use by
another person or persons within your company only; provided that
all users agree to accept the terms and conditions of this
Agreement.
YOU MAY NOT USE, COPY, MODIFY, DISTRIBUTE OR TRANSFER THE
SOFTWARE OR ANY COPY, OR MERGED OR COMBINED PORTION THEREOF, IN
WHOLE OR IN PART, EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY PROVIDED FOR IN THIS
AGREEMENT. IF YOU TRANSFER POSSESSION OF ANY COPY, OR MERGED OR
COMBINED PORTION OF THE SOFTWARE, TO ANOTHER PARTY EXCEPT AS
EXPRESSLY PROVIDED HEREIN, YOUR LICENSE IS AUTOMATICALLY
TERMINATED. YOU MAY NOT DECOMPILE, DISASSEMBLE, REVERSE ENGINEER
