The end user hereby represents that he or she is authorized to bind to this Agreement the entity that such end user represents. This Agreement governs the use of the Software (as defined below) and is effective upon the first date of installation or use of the Software ("Effective Date").

All such information or feedback provided by Licensee and its employees and agents (collectively, "Feedback") shall be Ingres’s property and deemed Ingres’s confidential and proprietary information.
7. Proprietary Rights. The intellectual property and proprietary rights of whatever nature in the Software and Feedback (including all copyright, trade secret, trademark, patent rights), including derivative works, are and shall remain the exclusive property of Ingres and its suppliers, if any. Except for the rights expressly granted by Ingres to Licensee under this Agreement, (i) Ingres and its suppliers, if any, reserve all right, title and interest in and to the Software and all intellectual property rights therein and (ii) no right, title, ownership interest or license in or to the Software, whether by implication, estoppel or otherwise, is granted, assigned or transferred to Licensee under or in connection with this Agreement. Licensee acknowledges Ingres’s need to be able to freely use any Feedback, and accordingly, Licensee hereby assigns to Ingres Licensee’s entire right, title and interest (including, without limitation, all patent rights, copyrights and trade secrets) in the Feedback that Licensee produces under this Agreement. Without additional consideration, Licensee agrees to perform all acts reasonably necessary to perfect and enforce such rights.
8. Confidentiality. The Software is the confidential and proprietary information of Ingres. Licensee agrees to take adequate steps, with no less than a reasonable degree of care, to protect the Software from unauthorized disclosure or use. Licensee acknowledges that the Software contains valuable trade secrets and proprietary information of Ingres and that any actual or threatened disclosure or misapplication of such Software will constitute immediate and irreparable harm to Ingres for which monetary damages would be an inadequate remedy and for which Ingres will be entitled to seek injunctive relief. Licensee shall not, and shall not allow any third party to, use the Software except as expressly authorized under this Agreement.
9. No Support or Warranty. Licensee understands that the Software is provided solely for Licensee’s internal use and independent development purposes and Ingres will not provide support for the Software. INGRES IS PROVIDING THE SOFTWARE "AS IS" AND INGRES MAKES NO OTHER WARRANTIES WITH RESPECT TO THE SOFTWARE OR ANY OTHER MATERIAL OR INFORMATION PROVIDED HEREUNDER. INGRES HEREBY DISCLAIMS ALL OTHER WARRANTIES, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. INGRES DOES NOT WARRANT THAT ANY SOFTWARE WILL BE PROVIDED ERROR FREE, WILL OPERATE WITHOUT INTERRUPTION OR WILL FULFILL LICENSEE’S REQUIREMENTS. TO THE EXTENT THAT INGRES CANNOT DISCLAIM ANY SUCH WARRANTY AS A MATTER OF APPLICABLE LAW, THE SCOPE AND DURATION OF SUCH WARRANTY WILL BE THE MINIMUM REQUIRED UNDER SUCH LAW.
10. Limitation of Liability. IN NO EVENT WILL INGRES BE LIABLE FOR: (I) ANY CONSEQUENTIAL, INDIRECT, EXEMPLARY, SPECIAL OR INCIDENTAL DAMAGES, INCLUDING ANY LOST DATA, LOST USE, OR LOST PROFITS, ARISING FROM OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT UNDER ANY LEGAL THEORY, EVEN IF INGRES HAS BEEN ADVISED OF, KNOWS OF, OR SHOULD KNOW OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES, AND (II) FOR ANY CLAIM ATTRIBUTABLE TO ERRORS, OMISSIONS OR OTHER INACCURACIES IN THE SOFTWARE. INGRES’S TOTAL CUMULATIVE LIABILITY IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT AND THE SOFTWARE, WHETHER IN CONTRACT, TORT, OR OTHERWISE, WILL NOT EXCEED FIVE HUNDRED DOLLARS (US$500.00). THIS LIMITATION OF LIABILITY WILL APPLY NOTWITHSTANDING THE FAILURE OF ESSENTIAL PURPOSE OF ANY LIMITED REMEDY SET FORTH HEREIN.
11. Indemnification. Licensee hereby agrees to indemnify Ingres against any and all damages, judgments, and costs (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) related to any claim based on: (a) Licensee’s distribution of the Client Libraries in breach of this Agreement and/or failure to include the required contractual provisions in a EULA as stated above; (b) an allegation that one or more of the Developer Products infringes the intellectual property rights of a third party; (c) the use of the Client Libraries in a manner prohibited under this Agreement, or in a manner for which the Client Libraries were not designed; or (d) bodily injury, property damage or any other damage or injury due to the use or inability to use a Developer Product.
12. Term and Termination. The term of this Agreement will begin on the Effective Date and will continue until terminated by either party under this Section; except that the rights granted under Section 2 (Evaluation License Grant) will terminate after sixty (60) days after the Effective Date (the "Trial Period"). Licensee hereby agrees that it may only license Software under Section 2 of this Agreement (Evaluation License Grant) for one (1) Trial Period (for instance, Licensee cannot license the Software under Section 2 for consecutive Trial Periods). Ingres may terminate this Agreement at any time if Licensee fails to comply with the terms and conditions of this Agreement. Licensee may terminate this Agreement by ending all use of the Software and destroying all copies of the Software in Licensee’s possession or control. Upon termination of this Agreement for any reason, all license rights granted in this Agreement will immediately terminate, and Licensee must promptly stop all use of the Software and must delete all copies of the Software. Termination of this Agreement for any reason will not terminate the rights of existing Customers who are subject to a EULA as of this Agreement’s termination date.
