including but not limited to laws relating to patents, copyrights, trade secrets, trademarks and any other
intellectual property or contract laws (collectively, Intellectual Property Rights). User acknowledges that
all Intellectual Property Rights in the Licensed Materials are and will remain the sole property of Altium
and/or it licensors. Nothing contained in this License will be construed as conferring by implication,
estoppel or otherwise upon either party any license or other right except the licenses and rights expressly
granted hereunder to a party hereto.
Upon payment of the applicable fees, Altium hereby grants User a nonexclusive, worldwide, non-
transferable license:
2
(i) to use the Licensed Materials, solely for the design, simulation, implementation and manufacture of
Licensed User Products; and subject to Section 3, below,
(ii) to make, have made, use, sell or otherwise distribute Licensed User Products developed from the
Licensed Materials and, in Users discretion, incorporating all or any portion of the Libraries, on a
worldwide basis to Users customers.
This EULA grants User the right to install and use the Licensed Materials upon or in connection with a
single computer or a single Local Area Network, depending upon the terms under which User has licensed
the Licensed Materials from Altium. In the event that User has licensed the Licensed Materials for use on
and in connection with a single computer, User may install and use only a single copy thereof, and said
copy may be used only by the original licensee; provided, however, that in the case of a single User, said
original licensee/User may install a second copy of the Licensed Materials on a home computer solely
for use in connection with, and governed by, the License granted herein. In the event that User has
licensed the Licensed Materials for use in connection with a Local Area Network, this EULA allows as
many persons employed or hired as contractors by User to simultaneously use the Licensed Materials as are
permitted under the license obtained from Altium by User. At no time shall User permit the number of
persons that may access and/or use the Licensed Materials to exceed the number of persons for whom User
has licensed the same. User understands and agrees that such use beyond that licensed hereunder, whether
by allowing excess persons to use the Licensed Materials or otherwise, shall constitute not only breach of
this EULA, but violation of national and international copyright laws. User may increase the number of
persons permitted to use the Licensed Materials at any one time by paying Altium additional license fees in
accordance with then-applicable pricing, provided that such additional persons in no way access or use the
Licensed Materials prior to any such additional license fees being paid by User. In the event that any
provision of this EULA is breached by User, the license granted herein shall automatically terminate,
without further action by Altium and whether or not User abides by such termination. Failure of Altium to
learn about any such breach shall not constitute a basis for User to assert that it is not in breach hereof, or
that Altium has acquiesced in such breach.
3. Restrictions on Use, Disclosure; Third-Party License Rights
The Licensed Materials are licensed only to User. Except as to Licensed Materials that in their entirety
contain no Cores or computer source code (whether in firmware or software format) in no event shall User
disclose, transfer, assign, publish, distribute, provide in a service bureau, rent, lease or in any other way
make available to any other person the Licensed Materials without the prior written consent of Altium,
whether; provided, however, that User shall be permitted to include within any Licensed User Products the
Libraries provided by Altium as part thereof. Such permission, however, in no event shall be construed to
allow User or any other entity to include any of the Licensed Materials, including but not limited to the
Libraries, in commercial products meant to compete with the Licensed Materials. As to Licensed Materials
that in their entirety contain no Cores or computer source code, User may transfer said Licensed Materials
only as a unit, and provided that User destroys any other copies of the same prior to said transfer, and that
the transferee obtains a copy of this EULA from User. A license obtained for a single computer may not be
transferred for use in connection with a LAN unless User pays the license fees required for a LAN license.
In the event that User has previously purchased a license to an earlier version Licensed Materials being
licensed hereunder, then for such transfer to be effective, any and all prior versions thereof licensed by User
must be transferred. In the event that User has received the Licensed Materials as part of a Bundle, then all
parts of the Bundle must be transferred; provided, however, that if any part of the Bundle contains Cores or
computer source code, no such transfer may take place. In the event that User has received the Licensed
Materials as Bonus Technology then such Bonus Technology must be transferred along with the original
licensed Licensed Materials. Under no circumstances can Licensed Materials supplied as Bonus
Technology be transferred separately. User understands and agrees that in no event shall he make
unauthorized copies of, decompile, reverse engineer, disassemble, modify, or otherwise reduce the
Licensed Materials or any portion thereof to human-perceivable form, or disclose to any third person any
portion of the Licensed Materials in human-perceivable form. User may not modify the computer software
provided with the Licensed Materials so as to make said software operable without the Altium Security

System with which they have been supplied. User may not provide, disclose or in any other way make
available to others any Cores, design data or information including, but not limited to, schematics,
hardware description language source code, or netlist files of any Licensed Materials to any third person
without the prior written approval of Altium; provided, however, that User may provide device
programming files, namely bit-stream files or PROM files, to third persons without such prior approval
solely for use in the manufacturing of Licensed User Products. If the Licensed Materials have been
licensed as part of a Bundle, User understands and agrees that in no event may the Licensed Materials be
transferred separately from the other materials in the Bundle, and then only with the written permission of
Altium.

application, User shall indemnify and hold Altium and its officers, employees, subsidiaries, affiliates, and
distributors harmless against all claims, costs, damages, expenses, and reasonable attorney fees arising out
of, directly or indirectly, any claim of personal injury, death, or other damages associated with such
unintended or unauthorized use, even if such claim alleges that Altium was negligent regarding the design
