- License For Customer Use of NVIDIA Software
- IMPORTANT NOTICE -- READ CAREFULLY: This License For Customer Use of
- NVIDIA Software ("LICENSE") is the agreement which governs use of
- the software of NVIDIA Corporation and its subsidiaries ("NVIDIA")
- downloadable herefrom, including computer software and associated

- RECITALS
- Use of NVIDIA's products requires three elements: the SOFTWARE, the
- hardware on a graphics controller board, and a personal computer. The
- SOFTWARE is protected by copyright laws and international copyright
- treaties, as well as other intellectual property laws and treaties.
- The SOFTWARE is not sold, and instead is only licensed for use,
- strictly in accordance with this document. The hardware is protected
- by various patents, and is sold, but this agreement does not cover
- that sale, since it may not necessarily be sold as a package with
- the SOFTWARE. This agreement sets forth the terms and conditions
- of the SOFTWARE LICENSE only.

- 1.1 Customer. Customer means the entity or individual that
- downloads the SOFTWARE.

- the following non-exclusive, non-transferable right to use the
- SOFTWARE, with the following limitations:
- 2.1.1 Rights. Customer may install and use one copy of the SOFTWARE
- on a single computer, and except for making one back-up copy of
- the Software, may not otherwise copy the SOFTWARE. This LICENSE
- of SOFTWARE may not be shared or used concurrently on different
- computers.
- 2.1.2 Linux/FreeBSD Exception. Notwithstanding the foregoing terms
- of Section 2.1.1, SOFTWARE designed exclusively for use on the Linux or

- provided that the binary files thereof are not modified in any way
- (except for unzipping of compressed files).
- 2.1.3 Limitations.
- No Reverse Engineering. Customer may not reverse engineer,
- decompile, or disassemble the SOFTWARE, nor attempt in any other
- manner to obtain the source code.
- No Separation of Components. The SOFTWARE is licensed as a
- single product. Its component parts may not be separated for use
- on more than one computer, nor otherwise used separately from the
- other parts.
- No Rental. Customer may not rent or lease the SOFTWARE to someone
- else.
- 3. TERMINATION
- This LICENSE will automatically terminate if Customer fails to
- comply with any of the terms and conditions hereof. In such event,
- Customer must destroy all copies of the SOFTWARE and all of its
- component parts.
- Defensive Suspension. If Customer commences or participates in any legal
- proceeding against NVIDIA, then NVIDIA may, in its sole discretion,
- suspend or terminate all license grants and any other rights provided
- under this LICENSE during the pendency of such legal proceedings.
- 4. COPYRIGHT
- All title and copyrights in and to the SOFTWARE (including but
- not limited to all images, photographs, animations, video, audio,
- music, text, and other information incorporated into the SOFTWARE),
- the accompanying printed materials, and any copies of the SOFTWARE,
- are owned by NVIDIA, or its suppliers. The SOFTWARE is protected

- CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES WHATSOEVER (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION,
- DAMAGES FOR LOSS OF BUSINESS PROFITS, BUSINESS INTERRUPTION, LOSS
- OF BUSINESS INFORMATION, OR ANY OTHER PECUNIARY LOSS) ARISING OUT
- OF THE USE OF OR INABILITY TO USE THE SOFTWARE, EVEN IF NVIDIA HAS
- BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
- 7. MISCELLANEOUS
- The United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International
- Sale of Goods is specifically disclaimed. If any provision of this
- LICENSE is inconsistent with, or cannot be fully enforced under,
