LICENSE AGREEMENT AND (2) YOU INTEND TO ENTER INTO AND TO BE BOUND BY
THE TERMS OF THIS AGREEMENT.
This Software License Agreement ("Agreement") is a legal agreement between you
(either an individual or entity) and Texas Instruments Incorporated
("TI"). The "Licensed Materials" subject to this Agreement include,
in whole or in part, the software programs that accompany this Agreement
and any "on-line" or electronic documentation associated with these
programs. By installing, copying or otherwise using the Licensed
Materials you agree to abide by the terms of this Agreement.
If you choose not to accept or agree with these terms, do not download
or install the Licensed Materials.
1. Object Code License. TI hereby grants to you a limited, non-exclusive
license to reproduce and use the Licensed Materials provided to you in
object code format and to distribute an unlimited number of object or

or executable copies are used solely and exclusively on devices
manufactured by or for TI.
2. Termination. This license is effective until terminated. Without prejudice
to any other rights, TI may terminate your right to use the Licensed
Materials under this Agreement if you fail to comply with the terms of
this Agreement. In such event, you shall destroy all copies of the
Licensed Materials, including all portions and derivatives thereof.
3. Intellectual Property Rights. The Licensed Materials being provided to you
hereunder are being made publicly available by TI, even though they
contain copyrighted material of TI and its licensors, if applicable.
In no event may you alter, remove or destroy any copyright notice
included in the Licensed Materials. To the extent that any of the
Licensed Materials are provided in binary or object code only, you may
not unlock, decompile, reverse engineer, disassemble or otherwise
translate such binary or object code to human-perceivable form. The
source code of such reverse engineered code may contain TI trade secret
and other proprietary information. Further, nothing shall obligate TI
to provide you with source code for the Licensed Materials licensed to
you in binary or object code only under this Agreement. TI reserves all
rights not specifically granted under this Agreement.
4. Warranties and Limitations. THE LICENSED MATERIALS ARE PROVIDED "AS IS". TI
MAKES NO WARRANTY OR REPRESENTATION, EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR STATUTORY,
INCLUDING ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTIBILITY, FITNESS FOR A
PARTICULAR PURPOSE, LACK OF VIRUSES, ACCURACY OR COMPLETENESS OF
RESPONSES, RESULTS AND LACK OF NEGLIGENCE. TI DISCLAIMS ANY WARRANTY OF

THIRD PARTY INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS WITH REGARD TO THE LICENSED

PRODUCTION APPLICATIONS AND MAY CONTAIN IRREGULARITIES AND DEFECTS NOT
FOUND IN PRODUCTION SOFTWARE. FURTHERMORE, YOU ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE
THAT THE LICENSED MATERIALS HAVE NOT BEEN TESTED OR CERTIFIED BY ANY
GOVERNMENT AGENCY OR INDUSTRY REGULATORY ORGANIZATION OR ANY OTHER THIRD
PARTY ORGANIZATION. YOU AGREE THAT PRIOR TO USING, INCORPORATING OR

OF THE LICENSED MATERIALS EXCEED FIVE HUNDRED U.S. DOLLARS (US$500).
Because some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of

Contracts for the International Sale of Goods, nor shall it be governed
by the Uniform Computer Information Transactions Act (UCITA). Any
dispute arising out of or related to this Agreement will be brought in,
and each party consents to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue in the
state and federal courts sitting in Dallas Country, Texas. Each party
waives all defenses of lack of personal jurisdiction and forum
non-conveniens and agrees that process may be served on either party in
a manner authorized by applicable law or court rule. If for any reason
a court of competent jurisdiction finds any provision of the Agreement
to be unenforceable, that provision will be enforced to the maximum
extent possible to effectuate the intent of the parties and the
remainder of the Agreement shall continue in full force and effect.

subject matter of this Agreement. No amendment or modification of this
Agreement will be effective unless in writing and signed by a duly
