The following terms govern your use of the Software except to the extent a particular program (a) is the subject of a separate written agreement with Cisco or (b) includes a separate

"click-on" license agreement as part of the installation process.

License. Subject to the terms and conditions of and except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, Cisco Systems, Inc. ("Cisco") and its suppliers grant to Customer ("Customer") a

nonexclusive and nontransferable license to use the specific Cisco program modules, feature set(s) or feature(s) for which Customer has paid the required license fees (the "Software"), in

object code form only. In addition, the foregoing license shall also be subject to each of the following limitations:

•

Unless otherwise expressly provided in the documentation, Customer shall use the Software solely as embedded in, for execution on, or (where the applicable documentation permits

installation on non-Cisco equipment) for communication with Cisco equipment owned or leased by Customer;

•

Customer's use of the Software shall be limited to use on a single hardware chassis, on a single central processing unit, as applicable, or use on such greater number of chassis or

central processing units as Customer may have paid Cisco the required license fee; and

•

Customer's use of the Software shall also be limited as applicable to the number of issued and outstanding IP addresses, central processing unit performance, number of ports, and

any other restrictions set forth in Cisco's product catalog for the Software.

NOTE: For evaluation or beta copies for which Cisco does not charge a license fee, the above requirement to pay a license fee does not apply.

General Limitations. Except as otherwise expressly provided under this Agreement, Customer shall have no right, and Customer specifically agrees not to: (i) transfer, assign or sublicense

its license rights to any other person, or use the Software on unauthorized or secondhand Cisco equipment, and any such attempted transfer, assignment or sublicense shall be void; (ii)

make error corrections to or otherwise modify or adapt the Software or create derivative works based upon the Software, or to permit third parties to do the same; or (iii) decompile, decrypt,

reverse engineer, disassemble or otherwise reduce the Software to human-readable form to gain access to trade secrets or confidential information in the Software. To the extent required

by law, at Customer's request, Cisco shall provide Customer with the interface information needed to achieve interoperability between the Software and another independently created

program, on payment of Cisco's applicable fee. Customer shall observe strict obligations of confidentiality with respect to such information.

Upgrades and Additional Copies. For purposes of this Agreement, "Software" shall include (and the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall apply to) any upgrades, updates, bug

fixes or modified versions (collectively, "Upgrades") or backup copies of the Software licensed or provided to Customer by Cisco or an authorized distributor for which Customer has paid

the applicable license fees. NOTWITHSTANDING ANY OTHER PROVISION OF THIS AGREEMENT: (1) CUSTOMER HAS NO LICENSE OR RIGHT TO USE ANY SUCH

ADDITIONAL COPIES OR UPGRADES UNLESS CUSTOMER, AT THE TIME OF ACQUIRING SUCH COPY OR UPGRADE, ALREADY HOLDS A VALID LICENSE TO THE

ORIGINAL SOFTWARE AND HAS PAID THE APPLICABLE FEE FOR THE UPGRADE; (2) USE OF UPGRADES IS LIMITED TO CISCO EQUIPMENT FOR WHICH CUSTOMER

IS THE ORIGINAL END USER PURCHASER OR LESSEE OR WHO OTHERWISE HOLDS A VALID LICENSE TO USE THE SOFTWARE WHICH IS BEING UPGRADED; AND

(3) USE OF ADDITIONAL COPIES IS LIMITED TO BACKUP PURPOSES ONLY.

Proprietary Notices. Customer agrees to maintain and reproduce all copyright and other proprietary notices on all copies, in any form, of the Software in the same form and manner that

such copyright and other proprietary notices are included on the Software. Except as expressly authorized in this Agreement, Customer shall not make any copies or duplicates or any

Software without the prior written permission of Cisco. Customer may make such backup copies of the Software as may be necessary for Customer's lawful use, provided Customer affixes

to such copies all copyright, confidentiality, and proprietary notices that appear on the original.

Protection of Information. Customer agrees that aspects of the Software and associated documentation, including the specific design and structure of individual programs, constitute trade

secrets and/or copyrighted material of Cisco. Customer shall not disclose, provide, or otherwise make available such trade secrets or copyrighted material in any form to any third party

without the prior written consent of Cisco. Customer shall implement reasonable security measures to protect such trade secrets and copyrighted material. Title to Software and

documentation shall remain solely with Cisco.

Limited Warranty. If Customer obtained the Software directly from Cisco, then Cisco warrants that during the Warranty Period (as defined below): (i) the media on which the Software

is furnished will be free of defects in materials and workmanship under normal use; and (ii) the Software will substantially conform to its published specifications. The "Warranty Period

means a period beginning on the date of Customer's receipt of the Software and ending on the later of (a) ninety (90) days from the date of initial shipment of the Software by Cisco, or

(b) the end of the minimum period required by the law of the applicable jurisdiction. In addition, Cisco may provide an additional limited Year 2000 warranty for the Software; information

regarding this warranty and its applicability to the Software may be found at the web site address www.cisco.com/warp/public/779/smbiz/service/y2k/y2k_comp.htm. The limited

warranties extend only to Customer as the original licensee. Customer's sole and exclusive remedy and the entire liability of Cisco and its suppliers under these limited warranties will be,

at Cisco or its service center's option, repair, replacement, or refund of the Software if reported (or, upon request, returned) to Cisco or its designee. Except as expressly granted in this

Agreement, the Software is provided AS IS. Cisco does not warrant that the Software is error free or that Customer will be able to operate the Software without problems or interruptions.

In addition, due to the continual development of new techniques for intruding upon and attacking networks, Cisco does not warrant that the Software or any equipment, system or network

on which the Software is used will be free of vulnerability to intrusion or attack. This warranty does not apply if the Software (a) is licensed for beta, evaluation, testing or demonstration

purposes for which Cisco does not receive a license fee, (b) has been altered, except by Cisco, (c) has not been installed, operated, repaired, or maintained in accordance with instructions

supplied by Cisco, (d) has been subjected to abnormal physical or electrical stress, misuse, negligence, or accident, or (e) is used in ultrahazardous activities. If Customer obtained the

Software from a Cisco reseller, the terms of any warranty shall be as provided by such distributor, and Cisco provides Customer no warranty with respect to such Software.

WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY IMPLIED WARRANTY OR CONDITION OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NONINFRINGEMENT,

OR INCIDENTAL DAMAGES, THE ABOVE LIMITATION MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.

documentation. Customer's license rights under this Agreement will terminate immediately without notice from Cisco if Customer fails to comply with any provision of this Agreement.

Upon termination, Customer must destroy all copies of Software in its possession or control.

Customer Records. Customer grants to Cisco and its independent accountants the right to examine Customer's books, records and accounts during Customer's normal business hours to
