International Program License Agreement


Part 1 - General Terms

PLEASE READ THIS AGREEMENT CAREFULLY BEFORE USING THE PROGRAM. IBM WILL LICENSE
THE PROGRAM TO YOU ONLY IF YOU FIRST ACCEPT THE TERMS OF THIS AGREEMENT. BY
USING THE PROGRAM YOU AGREE TO THESE TERMS. IF YOU DO NOT AGREE TO THE TERMS OF
THIS AGREEMENT, PROMPTLY RETURN THE UNUSED PROGRAM TO THE PARTY (EITHER IBM OR
ITS RESELLER) FROM WHOM YOU ACQUIRED IT TO RECEIVE A REFUND OF THE AMOUNT YOU
PAID.

The Program is owned by International Business Machines Corporation or one of
its subsidiaries (IBM) or an IBM supplier, and is copyrighted and licensed, not
sold.

The term "Program" means the original program and all whole or partial
copies of it. A Program consists of machine-readable instructions, its
components, data, audio-visual content (such as images, text, recordings, or
pictures), and related licensed materials.

This Agreement includes Part 1 - General Terms, Part 2 - Country-unique Terms,
and "License Information" and is the complete agreement regarding the use
of this Program, and replaces any prior oral or written communications between
you and IBM. The terms of Part 2 and License Information may replace or modify
those of Part 1.


1. License

Use of the Program

IBM grants you a nonexclusive license to use the Program.

You may 1) use the Program to the extent of authorizations you have acquired
and 2) make and install copies to support the level of use authorized,
providing you reproduce the copyright notice and any other legends of
ownership on each copy, or partial copy, of the Program.

If you acquire this Program as a program upgrade, your authorization to use the
Program from which you upgraded is terminated.

You will ensure that anyone who uses the Program does so only in compliance
with the terms of this Agreement.

You may not 1) use, copy, modify, or distribute the Program except as provided
in this Agreement; 2) reverse assemble, reverse compile, or otherwise translate
the Program except as specifically permitted by law without the possibility of
contractual waiver; or 3) sublicense, rent, or lease the Program.

Transfer of Rights and Obligations

You may transfer all your license rights and obligations under a Proof of
Entitlement for the Program to another party by transferring the Proof of
Entitlement and a copy of this Agreement and all documentation. The transfer of
your license rights and obligations terminates your authorization to use the
Program under the Proof of Entitlement.


2. Proof of Entitlement

The Proof of Entitlement for this Program is evidence of your authorization to
use this Program and of your eligibility for warranty services, future upgrade
program prices (if announced), and potential special or promotional
opportunities.


3. Charges and Taxes

IBM defines use for the Program for charging purposes and specifies it in the
Proof of Entitlement. Charges are based on extent of use authorized. If you
wish to increase the extent of use, notify IBM or its reseller and pay any
applicable charges. IBM does not give refunds or credits for charges already
due or paid.

If any authority imposes a duty, tax, levy or fee, excluding those based
on IBM's net income, upon the Program supplied by IBM under this
Agreement, then you agree to pay that amount as IBM specifies or supply
exemption documentation.


4. Limited Warranty

IBM warrants that when the Program is used in the specified operating
environment it will conform to its specifications. IBM does not warrant
uninterrupted or error-free operation of the Program or that we will correct
all Program defects. You are responsible for the results obtained from the use
of the Program. The warranty period for the Program expires when its Program
services are no longer available. The License Information specifies the
duration of Program services.

During the warranty period warranty service is provided without charge for the
unmodified portion of the Program through defect-related Program services.
Program services are available for at least one year following the Program's
general availability. Therefore, the duration of warranty service depends on
when you obtain your license. If the Program does not function as warranted
during the first year after you obtain your license and IBM is unable to
resolve the problem by providing a correction, restriction, or bypass, you may
return the Program to the party (either IBM or its reseller) from whom you
acquired it and receive a refund in the amount you paid for it. To be eligible,
you must have acquired the Program while Program services (regardless of the
remaining duration) were available for it.

THESE WARRANTIES ARE YOUR EXCLUSIVE WARRANTIES AND REPLACE ALL OTHER WARRANTIES
OR CONDITIONS, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED
WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR
PURPOSE.

These warranties give you specific legal rights, and you may also have other
rights which vary from jurisdiction to jurisdiction. Some jurisdictions do not
allow the exclusion or limitation of implied warranties, so the above exclusion
or limitation may not apply to you. In that event such warranties are limited
in duration to the warranty period. No warranties apply after that period.


5. Limitation of Liability

Circumstances may arise where, because of a default on IBM's part or other
liability, you are entitled to recover damages from IBM. In each such instance,
regardless of the basis on which you may be entitled to claim damages from IBM,
(including fundamental breach, negligence, misrepresentation, or other contract
or tort claim), IBM is liable for no more than 1) damages for bodily injury
(including death) and damage to real property and tangible personal property
and 2) the amount of any other actual direct damages up to the greater of U.S.
$100,000 (or equivalent in your local currency) or the charges for the
Program that is the subject of the claim.

IBM WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, OR INDIRECT DAMAGES OR FOR
ANY ECONOMIC CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES (INCLUDING LOST PROFITS OR SAVINGS), EVEN IF
IBM, OR ITS RESELLER, HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. SOME
JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION OF INCIDENTAL OR
CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, SO THE ABOVE LIMITATION OR EXCLUSION MAY NOT APPLY TO
YOU.

IBM will not be liable for 1) loss of, or damage to, your records or data or 2)
any damages claimed by you based on any third party claim.

This limitation of liability also applies to any developer of a Program
supplied to IBM. It is the maximum for which IBM and its suppliers are
collectively responsible.


6. General

Nothing in this Agreement affects any statutory rights of consumers that cannot
be waived or limited by contract.

IBM may terminate your license if you fail to comply with the terms of this
Agreement. If IBM does so, your authorization to use the Program is also
terminated.

You agree to comply with applicable export laws and regulations.

Neither you nor IBM will bring a legal action under this Agreement more than
two years after the cause of action arose unless otherwise provided by local
law without the possibility of contractual waiver or limitation.

Neither you nor IBM is responsible for failure to fulfill any obligations due
to causes beyond its control.

The laws of the country in which you acquire the Program govern this Agreement,
except 1) in Australia, the laws of the State or Territory in which the
transaction is performed govern this Agreement; 2) in Albania, Armenia,
Belarus, Bosnia/Herzegovina, Bulgaria, Croatia, Czech Republic, Georgia,
Hungary, Kazakhstan, Kirghizia, Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia (FYROM),
Moldova, Poland, Romania, Russia, Slovak Republic, Slovenia, Ukraine, and
Federal Republic of Yugoslavia, the laws of Austria govern this Agreement;
3) in the United Kingdom, all disputes relating to this Agreement will be
governed by English Law and will be submitted to the exclusive jurisdiction of
the English courts; 4) in Canada, the laws in the Province of Ontario govern
this Agreement; and 5) in the United States and Puerto Rico, and People's
Republic of China, the laws of the State of New York govern this Agreement.
