Disclaimer of Warranty and Exclusive Remedies

THE PROGRAMS ARE PROVIDED "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND.  WE
FURTHER DISCLAIM ALL WARRANTIES, EXPRESS AND IMPLIED, INCLUDING
WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS
FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE OR NONINFRINGEMENT.

IN NO EVENT SHALL WE BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL,
PUNITIVE OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, OR DAMAGES FOR LOSS OF PROFITS,
REVENUE, DATA OR DATA USE, INCURRED BY YOU OR ANY THIRD PARTY, WHETHER
IN AN ACTION IN CONTRACT OR TORT, EVEN IF WE HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF THE
POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.  OUR ENTIRE LIABILITY FOR DAMAGES
HEREUNDER SHALL IN NO EVENT EXCEED ONE THOUSAND DOLLARS (U.S. \$1,000).

No Technical Support

Our technical support organization will not provide technical support,
phone support, or updates to you for the programs licensed under this
agreement.

Restricted Rights

If you distribute a license to the United States government, the
programs, including documentation, shall be considered commercial
computer software and you will place a legend, in addition to
applicable copyright notices, on the documentation, and on the media
label, substantially similar to the following:

NOTICE OF RESTRICTED RIGHTS

"Programs delivered subject to the DOD FAR Supplement are 'commercial
computer software' and use, duplication, and disclosure of the
programs, including documentation, shall be subject to the licensing
restrictions set forth in the applicable Oracle license agreement.
Otherwise, programs delivered subject to the Federal Acquisition
Regulations are 'restricted computer software' and use, duplication,
and disclosure of the programs, including documentation, shall be
subject to the restrictions in FAR 52.227-19, Commercial Computer
Software-Restricted Rights (June 1987).  Oracle USA, Inc., 500 Oracle
Parkway, Redwood City, CA 94065."

End of Agreement

You may terminate this agreement by destroying all copies of the
programs.  We have the right to terminate your right to use the
programs if you fail to comply with any of the terms of this
agreement, in which case you shall destroy all copies of the programs.

Relationship Between the Parties

The relationship between you and us is that of licensee/licensor.
Neither party will represent that it has any authority to assume or
create any obligation, express or implied, on behalf of the other
party, nor to represent the other party as agent, employee,
franchisee, or in any other capacity.  Nothing in this agreement shall
be construed to limit either party's right to independently develop or
distribute software that is functionally similar to the other party's
products, so long as proprietary information of the other party is not
included in such software.

Open Source

"Open Source" software - software available without charge for use,
modification and distribution - is often licensed under terms that
require the user to make the user's modifications to the Open Source
software or any software that the user 'combines' with the Open Source
software freely available in source code form.  If you use Open Source
software in conjunction with the programs, you must ensure that your
use does not: (i) create, or purport to create, obligations of us with
respect to the Oracle programs; or (ii) grant, or purport to grant, to
any third party any rights to or immunities under our intellectual
property or proprietary rights in the Oracle programs.  For example,
you may not develop a software program using an Oracle program and an
Open Source program where such use results in a program file(s) that
contains code from both the Oracle program and the Open Source program
(including without limitation libraries) if the Open Source program is
licensed under a license that requires any "modifications" be made
freely available.  You also may not combine the Oracle program with
programs licensed under the GNU General Public License ("GPL") in any
manner that could cause, or could be interpreted or asserted to cause,
the Oracle program or any modifications thereto to become subject to
the terms of the GPL.

Entire Agreement

You agree that this agreement is the complete agreement for the
programs and licenses, and this agreement supersedes all prior or
contemporaneous agreements or representations.  If any term of this
agreement is found to be invalid or unenforceable, the remaining
provisions will remain effective.
