END USER LICENSE AGREEMENT
HELIX(tm) UNIVERSAL SERVER - INTERNET
REDISTRIBUTION NOT PERMITTED
Software License for Helix(tm)
Universal Server - Internet
IMPORTANT -- READ CAREFULLY: This End
User License Agreement ("License
Agreement") is a legal agreement
between you (either an individual or an
entity) and RealNetworks, Inc. and its
suppliers and licensors (collectively,
"RN") for RN's Helix Universal Server -
Internet which includes computer
software and associated media and
printed materials, whether provided in
physical form or received on-line in
electronic form ("Software"). By
choosing "Accept," installing, copying
or otherwise using the Software, you
agree to be bound by the terms of this
License Agreement. If you do not agree
to the terms of this License Agreement,
select "Cancel" or "No" and/or do not
install the Software.
YOU AGREE THAT YOUR USE OF THE SOFTWARE
ACKNOWLEDGES THAT YOU HAVE READ THIS
LICENSE, UNDERSTAND IT, AND AGREE TO BE
BOUND BY ITS TERMS AND CONDITIONS.
ANY THIRD PARTY SOFTWARE, INCLUDING ANY
NON-RN PLUG-IN, THAT MAY BE PROVIDED
WITH THE SOFTWARE IS INCLUDED FOR USE
AT YOUR OPTION. IF YOU CHOOSE TO USE
SUCH SOFTWARE, THEN SUCH USE SHALL BE
GOVERNED BY SUCH THIRD PARTY'S LICENSE
AGREEMENT, AN ELECTRONIC COPY OF WHICH
WILL BE INSTALLED IN THE "LICENSES"
FOLDER IN THE DIRECTORY ON YOUR
COMPUTER IN WHICH YOU CHOOSE TO INSTALL
THE SOFTWARE.
1. SOFTWARE OWNERSHIP. This is a
license agreement and NOT an agreement
for sale. Title, ownership rights and
intellectual property rights in and to
the Software (including any images,
animations, video, audio, music, and
text incorporated into the Software),
accompanying printed materials, and any
copies you are permitted to make herein
are owned by RN or its suppliers and
are protected by United States
copyright law and international treaty
provisions. You may (a) make one copy
of the Software solely for backup or
archival purposes (in accordance with
customary practices for such purpose),
provided such copy must contain all of
the original Software's proprietary
notices, or (b) transfer the Software
to a single hard disk, provided you
keep the original solely for backup or
archival purposes. You may not copy
the printed or electronically
transmitted materials accompanying the
Software. Your rights to use the
Software are specified in this License
Agreement, and RN retains all rights
not expressly granted to you in this
License Agreement. Nothing in this
License Agreement constitutes a waiver
of RN's rights under U.S. or
international copyright law or any
other federal or state law.
2. GRANT OF LICENSE. Subject to the
provisions contained herein and in
return for the payment of the requisite
License Fees for the Software, RN
hereby grants you a non-exclusive,
non-transferable, perpetual, worldwide
license to the version of the Software
specified by your Software License Key
for installation of the Software.
(a) Installation. For each Server
License Key you purchase, you may
install only one copy of the Software
on a single computer containing one or
more central processing units ("CPU's")
(the computer running the Software
shall be referred to as the "Host
Computer"). A separate license fee and
Server License Key is required for each
Host Computer.
(b) Use. You may use your
installed copy of the Software to
deliver to End-User client computers
the number of Streams or quantity of
megabits per second ("Mbps")
specifically enabled by the Server
License Key. A "Stream" means the
stream of digitally encoded data that
delivers a digital media type (e.g.,
RealAudio, RealVideo, Mp3, etc.) to a
single end-user client computer. The
number of Streams delivered by a given
Host Computer is measured by counting
the number of End-Users simultaneously
served by Streams originating at that
Host Computer. The quantity of Mbps
delivered is measured by the total
amount of digital media (e.g.,
RealAudio, RealVideo, Mp3, etc.)
delivered by a given Host Computer at
any given time. If you wish to deliver
additional Streams or Mbps capacity,
you must purchase an additional
Software License Key from RN. You may
only serve the media types that are
authorized by your Server License Key.
If you have purchased more than one
Server License Key on a Stream count
basis, you may deploy the Software on
licensed Host Computers so that the
licensed Streams are distributed among
the Host Computers, provided that (i)
the configuration of the Host Computers
cannot serve more simultaneous Streams
than the aggregate number of Streams
allowed by the individual Server
License Keys for the Host Computers;
and (ii) the number of Host Computers
on which you install the Software may
not exceed the number of Server License
Keys you have purchased. For example,
if you have purchased three Server
License Keys of 100 Streams, 200
Streams, and 0 Streams, you may deploy
the Software so that the Streams are
distributed among up to three Host
Computers, so long as the configuration
of Host Computers cannot serve more
than 300 simultaneous Streams. Mbps
capacity may not be distributed among
Host Computers. For example, if you
have purchased three Server License
Keys of 10 Mbps each, the Software must
be installed on three Host Computers
such that each Host Computer can serve
no more than 10 Mbps each.
(c) Redundant Extension Option. If
you have purchased the Redundant
Extension Option, you may also install
one (1) additional copy ("Redundant
Copy") of the Software on another Host
Computer, provided that such Redundant
Copy is used only as a back-up system,
for resilience purposes, and is not
operating simultaneously with the
primary copy of the Software. The
license rights granted in this Section
2(c) are explicitly not intended to
increase your total streaming capacity.
(d) Educational Institutions Only.
If you are an accredited educational
institution that provides primary,
collegiate, or graduate education
("Educational Institution"), and you
have licensed the Software for use in
connection with such Educational
Institution, you may additionally: (i)
install the Software on a computer
acting as network server to deliver
multimedia content; (ii) enable
authorized individuals within the
Educational Institution to access the
Software, subject to the terms and
conditions contained herein; (iii) use
the Software to deliver multimedia
content in connection with the
Educational Institution's activities,
including but not limited to classroom
instruction; and (iv) use the Software
to serve Streams in conjunction with
any public worldwide Website of the
Educational Institution. You may not
charge users of the Software any fee to
receive Streams delivered by the
Software. You agree that you shall
offer any instruction with the enhanced
Stream delivery component at the same
(or lower) fee at which the Educational
Institution charges the same
instruction without the Stream delivery
feature.
(e) No Resale of Software. You may
not, under any circumstances, rent,
resell, sublicense, or deliver the
Software on a stand-alone basis to any
third-party. If you desire to resell
the Software on a stand-alone basis,
please contact RN regarding
participating in its Reseller Program.
(f) Attribution. You must indicate
which publicly available files are in
RealAudio (.ra), RealVideo (.rm), or
other RealMedia format. RN hereby
grants you a non-exclusive, limited
license to use, and you agree that you
shall always use, RN's trademarks in
accordance with RN's Trademark and Logo
Usage Policy at
http://www.realnetworks.com/company/
guide/policy.html, and for the sole
purpose of informing web page visitors
that RealAudio, RealVideo, or other
RealMedia content is available at your
web page. You may not without RN's
express written permission use any RN
trademark in a way that may imply that
you are an agency or branch of RN or
that RN endorses, is affiliated with,
or sponsors you or your products. You
may not link directly to any media file
or .ram file made available from the RN
Website.
(g) Use of GUIDs and Cookies. If you
enable the Software to utilize any
global unique identifiers (GUIDs)
and/or cookies placed in or contained
in the RealOne Player or other RN
product, RN recommends and encourages
you to prominently disclose such use to
your end users and customers and obtain
consent to use such GUIDs and/or
cookies from your end users and
customers, and give each end user and
customer the opportunity to opt out of
your use of GUIDs and/or cookies with
respect to each such end user or
customer. You agree to hold harmless,
indemnify and defend RN, its officers,
directors and employees, from and
against any losses, damages, fines and
expenses (including attorneys' fees and
costs) arising out of or relating to
any claims that you have
inappropriately used GUIDs and/or
cookies.
3. OTHER RIGHTS AND LIMITATIONS.
Wireless Networks. You may not deploy
the Software in a 2.5G or 3G mobile
network. Notice to Users. You agree to
inform all users of the Software, other
than End Users receiving Streams, of
the terms of this License Agreement.
Dual-Media Software. You may receive
the Software in more than one medium
(e.g., by electronic distribution and
on CD-ROM). Regardless of the type or
size of medium you receive, you may use
only one medium that is appropriate for
your single computer. You may not use
or install the other medium on another
computer. You may not loan, rent,
lease, grant a security interest in, or
otherwise transfer the other medium to
another user. No Copying. You may not
copy the Software or Documentation,
except that you may make a single copy
of the software for archival purposes
only, provided such copy must contain
all of the original Software's
proprietary notices. No Modifications
or Reverse Engineering. You may not
modify, translate, reverse engineer,
decompile or disassemble (except to the
extent that this restriction is
expressly prohibited by applicable
law), or create derivative works based
on the Software. Rental/Transfer. You
may not rent, lease, sell, or transfer
the Software or documentation without
RN's express written consent, which RN
may withhold in its discretion. Audit
Rights. You shall permit RN to audit
your compliance with this License
Agreement, as RN deems reasonably
necessary. Reservation of Rights. All
rights not expressly granted to you are
reserved to RN.
4. BETA RELEASE VERSIONS. In the
event that the Software is a beta
release version, the terms of this
Section shall apply. Your license to
use the Software expires 120 days after
installation (or such other period as
indicated by the Software) and the
Software may cease to function. The
Software you are receiving may contain
more or less features than the
commercial release of the RN Product
that RN intends to distribute. While
RN intends to distribute a commercial
release of the Software, RN reserves
the right at any time not to release a
commercial release of the Software or,
if released, to alter features,
specifications, capabilities,
functions, licensing terms, release
dates, general availability or other
characteristics of the commercial
release. You agree that the Beta
Release Versions are not suitable for
production use and may contain errors
affecting their proper operation. You
agree that you will not do anything to
circumvent or defeat the features
designed to stop the Software from
operating after the license expires.
5. SOFTWARE UPGRADES. RN may develop
or issue upgraded versions of the
Software from time to time. At its
sole option, and for a fee to be
determined, RN may make such upgrades
available to you. If the Software you
have is labeled as an upgrade, you must
be properly licensed to use a product
identified by RN as being eligible for
the upgrade in order to use the
Software. Software labeled as an
upgrade replaces and/or supplements the
product that formed the basis for your
eligibility for the upgrade, and
following the upgrade you may use the
resulting Software only in accordance
with the terms of this License
Agreement. If the Software is an
upgrade of a component of a package of
software programs that you licensed as
a single product, the Software may be
used and transferred only as part of
that single product package and may not
be separated for use on more than one
computer.
6. WARRANTIES AND LIABILITIES.
