This agreement applies to version 5 of the software program Visustin,
including all available editions, add-in tools and documentation,
hereinafter referred to as the Software.

IF YOU DO NOT AGREE TO THE TERMS OF THIS AGREEMENT, DO NOT INSTALL,
COPY, DISTRIBUTE OR USE THIS SOFTWARE.


1. GRANT OF LICENSE. Aivosto Oy grants to you a nonexclusive right to
install, copy, distribute and use this copy of the Software according to
the terms set forth below.

period and/or a limited set of features. The Demo Version is labeled
with the word "Demo" and is provided for the purpose of evaluation. - A
Full Version is a copy of the Software where some or all Demo Version
limits on the use period and/or set of features have been lifted.


3. USE OF THE DEMO VERSION. Subject to these terms, you are hereby
licensed to use the Demo Version for evaluation purposes without charge 
for a period of 90 days.

e) you agree to stop further distribution of the Demo Version if

Although not required, Aivosto Oy recommends that all distributors
inform Aivosto Oy of their distribution of the Software. 


5. USE OF THE FULL VERSION. Use of the Software for any other purposes
than what is described above under the headings "Use of the Demo
Version" and "Distribution of the Demo Version" requires a valid license
to use the Full Version and an activated Full Version Installation.

An Installation is defined as an installed and activated Full Version of
the Software. Each computer hardware and operating system user account
combination requires a separate Installation.

The license type defines the number of Installations and users allowed.
Additional Installations are permitted only if the Software is first
uninstalled so that the number of Installations allowed by the license
type is not exceeded at any time. Unless otherwise indicated, your
license is a single user license.

A SINGLE USER LICENSE permits two (2) Installations of the Software:
- a primary Installation for one (1) simultaneous user, and
- a secondary Installation for the exclusive use of the primary user 
  of the primary Installation.

A TEAM LICENSE is equivalent to five (5) single user licenses.

AN N-PACK, where N is a number, is equivalent to N single user licenses.

A SITE LICENSE allows one hundred (100) Installations. The site license
covers any number of users in a single organization within a radius of 3
miles (5 km). This area is referred to as the Site. In addition,
employees of the organization are allowed to use the Software outside
the Site on their portable and home computers in either of the following
cases: the employee either works solely at home, or the employee works
at the Site a minimum of one day/week. Independent contractors of the
organization may use the Software at the Site but not at other
locations. 

AN UNLIMITED SITE LICENSE is equivalent to a site license that allows an 
unlimited number of Installations.

A WORLD-WIDE LICENSE is equivalent to a site license that covers any
location where the organization operates. The size of the license
determines the allowed number of Installations.


6. ACTIVATION. Installation and use of the Software may require
technical activation using an Internet connection. If the computer
hardware, system environment or operating system user account 
information has been changed, or the Installation has been damaged, a 
new activation may be required. Aivosto Oy may limit the number of
activations in a given time period. Before activation, Aivosto Oy may
require proof of purchase of a valid license and proof of uninstallation
of an existing Installation.

The availability of activation is guaranteed for three (3) years after
purchase. During this time, activation is free of charge. After this
time, activation may not be available or may require additional payment
at the decision of Aivosto Oy.


7. UPGRADES. Unless otherwise indicated, a valid license to use the Full
Version includes the right to install free version updates, provided
that the major version number has not changed. Before giving a free
update, Aivosto Oy may require proof of purchase of a valid license.
Aivosto Oy reserves the right to assign version numbers. 


8. TRANSFERS. You may transfer a license to the Software to someone else
by written consent of Aivosto Oy. Such consent is not to be unreasonably
withheld provided that you conform to the following requirements:
a) you delete all Installations of the Full Version, AND
b) you inform Aivosto Oy of the transfer 30 days in advance, AND
c) you don't transfer, assign, rent, lease, sell or otherwise dispose of
the Software on a temporary basis, AND
d) you transfer your entire license.

international treaty provisions. You acknowledge that no title to the 
intellectual property in the Software is transferred to you. 


10. REVERSE ENGINEERING AND CRACKING. You agree that you will not 
attempt to reverse compile, modify, adapt, translate, copy, emulate, 
clone, or disassemble the Software in whole or in part. You also agree 
that you will not attempt to circumvent ("crack") any technical 
limitations on the period of use or available set of features of the 
Software, unless permitted by a valid license.


11. PROHIBITED USE. The Software may not be used for the design,
development, production, use or stockpiling of weapons.


12. DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTIES. THIS SOFTWARE AND THE ACCOMPANYING FILES
ARE SOLD "AS IS" AND WITHOUT WARRANTIES AS TO PERFORMANCE OR
MERCHANTABILITY OR ANY OTHER WARRANTIES WHETHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED.
Because of the various hardware and software environments into which the
Software may be put, NO WARRANTY OF FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE IS

AIVOSTO OY SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY DIRECT, INDIRECT, CONSEQUENTIAL
OR INCIDENTAL DAMAGES (INCLUDING DAMAGES FOR LOSS OF BUSINESS PROFITS,

ARISING OUT OF THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE SOFTWARE EVEN IF AIVOSTO
OY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMANGES. ANY LIABILITY
OF AIVOSTO OY WILL BE LIMITED EXCLUSIVELY TO PRODUCT REPLACEMENT OR
REFUND OF PURCHASE PRICE. 


13. TERMINATION. This license is effective until terminated. If 
indicated as a time-limited license, this license will immediately 
terminate without notice from Aivosto Oy when the license period 
expires. This license will immediately terminate without notice from 
Aivosto Oy if you fail to comply with any provision of this license. 
Upon termination you shall destroy all the copies and Installations of 
the Software, including modified copies, if any.


14. GOVERNING LAW AND DISPUTES. This agreement shall be governed by the 
laws of Finland and shall benefit Aivosto Oy, its successors and 
assigns. Any disputes shall be settled primarily through negotiations.
In the event that disputes cannot be settled through negotiations, they 
shall be settled by the Finnish courts at the domicile of Aivosto Oy.


15. SEVERABILITY. In the event of invalidity of any provision of this
license, such invalidity shall not affect the validity of the remaining
portions of this license.

terms at any time, in which case the new terms will apply to copies of
the Software produced or obtained after the change.
