+Telephone +49 <20> 89 <20> 452 33 84-0 Fax +49 <20> 89 <20> 452 33 84-99

+1 General
+The terms defined in Appendix 1: Definitions shall apply for these General License and Support Conditions.
+These License and Support Conditions shall apply for all PDFlib GmbH software products.
+The present agreement concerns solely executable object code and does not include any rights of any
+nature to the products<74> source code. Within this agreement, the specific products licensed by the customer
+shall be referred to as a whole as <20>the Program<61>. The Program shall be supplied with a manual
+in electronic format describing the Program characteristics and its use (<28>the Documentation<6F>).
+PDFlib GmbH sells its products and services solely to companies, but not to consumers.
+The following provisions in Clauses 2 to 5 relate to licenses for the Program purchased by the customer,
+Clause 6 to any additional support services (software maintenance) for the Program, and Clauses 7
+to 9 relate to both alike.
+2 Scope of the License
+2.1 Remunerated Licenses
+Purchase of a remunerated license from PDFlib GmbH shall entitle Licensee to the non-exclusive, perpetual
+right to use Program on the agreed number of Licensee<65>s computers run on the agreed platform;
+free licenses shall be governed by the provisions in Clause 2.3 and Clause 2.4. The remunerated
+license can be transferred to a third party in so far as and as soon as the license transfer form which
+can be requested from PDFlib GmbH is properly completed by Licensee and the third party and is received
+by PDFlib GmbH.
+2.2 License for Backup and Development Systems
+The following provisions in Clause 2.2 shall apply for executable object code of the software products
+offered by PDFlib GmbH on all platforms except IBM eServer iSeries, IBM eServer zSeries and compatible
+systems.
+Every properly remunerated licensed Program may be used by the customer not only on the computer
+it is first installed on but also on another computer running on the same operating system (<28>backup
+system<EFBFBD>), as long as both computers with the same license right (for one computer) are not used at
+the same time.
+Licensee shall also be entitled to use the Program on an unlimited number of development computers
+as long as they are not used for production purposes at the same time (development license). The necessary
+preconditions for such a development license are that access to the development computer via
+a network is only possible for developers working on products in which a licensed copy of the Program
+is or will be integrated, and that the development computer is run on the same platform for which a license
+was purchased.
+2.3 Free Products
+For the products PDFlib FontReporter Plugin, PDFlib TET Plugin and PDFlib TET PDF IFilter (here only the
+desktop version and only non-commercial use), Licensee shall be granted a non-exclusive, free, nontransferable
+and perpetual license to use the Program on any number of Licensee<65>s computers. These
+licenses shall not be governed by the provisions in Clause 5 (Warranty) and 7 (Liability), the statutory
+provisions for gifts shall apply instead.
+2.4 Free use of Evaluation Versions of the Program
+For certain products, PDFlib GmbH offers freely available versions which can be run without purchasing
+a license key (evaluation versions), albeit with restrictions compared with the purchased license of
+the same product as described in the pertinent product documentation. For evaluation versions, Licensee
+shall be granted a non-exclusive, free, non-transferable and perpetual license to evaluate the
+Program on any number of Licensee<65>s computers. Evaluation in this sense is the consideration by
+Page E-2 of PDFlib GmbH General License and Support Conditions, Last amended November 2009 6
+Licensee whether to purchase the Program for productive use (productive use is use of the Program directly,
+indirectly or as support for profit-making activities or other activities according to its articles of
+incorporation by Licensee or a third party), and the development of products by Licensee in which a
+(subsequently purchased) remunerated licensed copy of the Program or an evaluation version is or will
+be integrated and whose intended use materially exceeds the integration of the PDFlib GmbH Program.
+If Licensee integrates the evaluation version in one of his own products of the aforementioned
+type, he shall also be entitled to transfer the license to the integrated evaluation version when passing
+on his product to a third party.
+2.5 PDFlib Block Plugin
+For the PDFlib Block Plugin, which is a component of the PDFlib Personalization Server, Licensee of the
+PDFlib Personalization Server shall be granted <20> above and beyond the license granted in Clause 2.1 <20>
+the right to pass the PDFlib Block Plugin on to any number of third parties and to grant them the right
+to use the PDFlib Block Plugin solely to create data for their own purposes which are then transmitted
+to and processed by Licensee subject to the condition that Licensee secures from the third parties an
+undertaking to use the PDFlib Block Plugin only in the aforementioned manner and not to pass it on to
+any further persons themselves.
+3 Restrictions
+3.1 Intellectual Property
+The Program and the Documentation are the copyrighted intellectual property of PDFlib GmbH.
+When processing existing PDF documents with the Program Licensee must respect the access permissions
+and permission controls which have been applied by the document<6E>s author in order to grant or
+deny certain rights to the users of the document.
+3.2 Reverse Engineering and Confidentiality
+Licensee undertakes not to translate, disassemble, or reverse-engineer the Program, in so far as this is
+not permitted under Section 69e German Copyright Act.
+Licensee undertakes not to redistribute or make publicly available any license key received from PDFlib
+GmbH.
+3.3 Updates and Upgrades
+If Licensee receives the Program as a new main version or maintenance release to an earlier version of
+the same or other product (Update) or if a product license is converted into a license for another product
+which contains the originally licensed product (Upgrade), the new license shall be provided on a license
+exchange basis. Installing and using an updated or upgraded version shall terminate the license
+for the earlier version.
+4 Delivery
+The Program and the Documentation shall be delivered in digital format only. The Program, Documentation
+and all pertinent maintenance updates shall be retrieved from the PDFlib GmbH website at
+www.pdflib.com. PDFlib GmbH shall not provide Licensee with either digital storage media or printed
+Documentation.
+5 Warranty
+5.1 Warranty for Customers with registered Offices in the Federal Republic of Germany
+If the customer has registered offices in the Federal Republic of Germany, the following provisions
+shall apply:
+Subject to Clause 9, the statutory provisions for warranties shall apply with the condition that the
+warranty period (time bar for warranty claims, Section 438 Subs. 1 German Civil Code) shall be one
+year. This shall not apply, however, for fault-related claims for damages under compensation for bodily
+harm or impairment of health due to a fault for which PDFlib GmbH is liable or under gross negligence
+by PDFlib GmbH or its agents, nor for cases of deceit by PDFlib GmbH; these cases shall be governed by
+statutory provisions.

+and in its own discretion (i) provide a correction of or a workaround for any reproducible faults reported
+by Licensee and supply an updated version of the Program or (ii) refund any fees paid under this license

+GmbH is hereby expressly excluded.

+support agreement shall be prolonged after each term of one year by the same period unless terminated
+by the customer with up to one month<74>s notice to the end of the pertinent term sent by letter or
+fax. In this case of automatic prolongation, the support agreement shall also end without separate

+reached.
