The TOSHIBA Televisions uses software components
that are distributed as freeware under a third-party
end-user license agreement or copyright notice

In addition, some of the software components
which are used in Toshiba Televisions include the
software that are made or developed originally
by TOSHIBA. These software and accompanied
documents are copyrighted by TOSHIBA, and
protected by Copyright Act, an international
treaty's articles and other governing laws. The
software components which are made or developed
originally by TOSHIBA and not subject to EULAs are
not a target of source code off ering.
The Toshiba warranty provided in respect of the
TV is the only warranty provided and no additional
warranties are provided in respect of the software
components subject to EULAs.
Some of the software components distributed
under EULAs are made available for use by the user
on the premise that they are not copyrighted or
warranted by TOSHIBA or any third party. These
software components are licensed to the user
free of charge and therefore not covered by any
warranty within the scope of the applicable laws.
These software components are provided in "as is"
condition without any warranty, whether express or
implied. "Warranty" here includes, but not limited
to, an implied warranty for marketability or fi tness
for specifi c uses. All risks associated with the quality
or performance of these software components are
assumed by the user. TOSHIBA shall not be liable
whatsoever for any cost of repair or correction or
other incidental expense incurred in connection
with a defect found in any of these software
components. Unless specifi ed under the applicable
laws or in a written agreement, a party who changes
or redistributes the software with consent from the
copyright holders or based on the aforementioned
licenses shall not be held liable whatsoever for
any loss arising from the use of or inability to use
such software components. The same applies even
when the copyright holders or relevant third parties
have been informed of the possibility of such loss.
"Loss" here includes normal, special, incidental and
indirect loss (including, but not limited to, the loss
of data or its accuracy; loss incurred by the user or
any third party; and interface incompatibility with
other software). Please read each EULA for details on
the use conditions and items that must be observed
regarding these software components.

Preamble
The licenses for most software are designed to
take away your freedom to share and change it. By
contrast, the GNU General Public License is intended
to guarantee your freedom to share and change free
software--to make sure the software is free for all its
users. This General Public License applies to most
of the Free Software Foundation's software and to
any other program whose authors commit to using
it. (Some other Free Software Foundation software
is covered by the GNU Lesser General Public License
instead.) You can apply it to your programs, too.
When we speak of free software, we are referring
to freedom, not price. Our General Public Licenses
are designed to make sure that you have the
freedom to distribute copies of free software (and
charge for this service if you wish), that you receive
source code or can get it if you want it, that you
can change the software or use pieces of it in new
free programs; and that you know you can do these
things.
To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions
