USB Host Stack Disclaimer

LICENSE:

By installing the Renesas USB Stack you agree to be bound by the following license terms between you ("Customer") and Renesas Electronics Europe Limited ("Renesas"):

1.  Subject to compliance with the obligations under this license, customer is hereby granted a royalty free, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-assignable, non-sub-licensable license to (a) use the USB Stack in source and object code form solely as necessary for the design and development of your products ("Customer Products") and (b) to make, sell, offer to sell, or otherwise distribute the USB Stack (in object code form only) as part of the Customer Products, in both cases on Renesas devices ONLY. The term "use" in the development or design phase described in (a) above shall include making modification to the USB stack code but is limited to modification of the blocks identified as requiring modification in the user manual of the USB Stack.


2.  Customer agrees that it shall not convey or distribute all or any part of the USB Stack source code which is combined with any code containing or being derived from opensource software models including those which require derived or combined works to be licensed on the same terms including but not limited to GNU's general public license (GPL) Apache Server License, and Sun Community License.


3.  No other license to any intellectual property right of Renesas is expressly or impliedly granted hereunder. Customer shall not decompile or reverse engineer the USB Stack except as permitted by this license or by law.


4.  There is no transfer of ownership of intellectual property rights in the USB Stack hereunder. All intellectual rights in the USB Stack shall remain the property of Renesas.


5.  The USB Stack is provided by Renesas on an "as is" basis without warranty of any kind (and is not guaranteed to be error free). The entire risk as to the results and performance of the USB Stack, either on its own or in combination with any other hardware or USB Stack (whether provided by Renesas or otherwise), is assumed by Customer.


6.  Customer must use its own judgment as to the suitability of the USB Stack for the use to which the USB Stack is put. Renesas disclaims all warranties and representation, whether express or implied, including but not limited to the implied warranties of merchantability, satisfactory quality, fitness for a particular purpose, and warranties with regard to non-infringement of intellectual property rights with regard to the USB Stack.


7.  There is no obligation on Renesas to fix errors or update the USB Stack and no support will be provided by Renesas in respect of the USB Stack.


8.  Customer agrees that the supply of the USB Stack does not imply any license or liability for intellectual property rights associated with the standards relating to USB Stack. Customer assumes all responsibility and liability for such licenses or liabilities and must contact the third party owner of the respective intellectual property rights directly for such licenses.


9.  Any material breach of this license (including, without limitation, breach of clauses 1, 2, and 10) by Customer shall entitle Renesas to terminate this license upon written notice to Customer.


10.  Each party shall comply with all applicable export control laws and regulations promulgated and administered by the governments of any countries asserting jurisdiction over the parties' activities under this license.


11.  Except to the extent such liability can not be lawfully limited or excluded, Renesas shall have no liability to Customer, howsoever arising out of or in connection with this license whether in contract, tort or otherwise, including under any mode of damages, compensatory or restitution award. The foregoing limit and exclusion of liability (without limiting its generality) operates to exclude liability for loss of profits, loss of data, loss of business, loss of anticipated savings, or product recall costs, as well as any consequential loss. In the event that a court of competent jurisdiction holds that any exclusion or limit of liability is unreasonable and that Renesas is therefore liable to Customer under this license, such liability shall be limited to fifty pounds sterling.


12.  This license is subject to the laws of England and Wales and the parties submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of England and Wales for the determination of any dispute in relation to this license.
