herein. In such event, you must immediately destroy the Program.

6. Export Controls. The Program may not be re-exported, downloaded or
otherwise exported into (or to a national or resident of) any country to which
the U.S. has embargoed goods, or to anyone on the U.S. Treasury Department’s

warranty for the Program and Manual(s). The Program and Manual(s) are provided
"as is" without warranty of any kind, either express or implied, including,
without limitation, the implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a
particular purpose, or non-infringement. Some states do not allow the exclusion
or limitation of implied warranties or liability for incidental damages, so the
above limitations may not apply to you.

SUBSIDIARIES OR AFFILIATES OR LICENSEES SHALL BE LIABLE IN ANY WAY FOR LOSS OR
DAMAGE OF ANY KIND RESULTING FROM THE USE OF THE PROGRAM, THE EDITOR OR AN

GOODWILL, WORK STOPPAGE, COMPUTER FAILURE OR MALFUNCTION, OR ANY AND ALL OTHER
COMMERCIAL DAMAGES OR LOSSES. ANY WARRANTY AGAINST INFRINGEMENT THAT MAY BE
PROVIDED IN SECTION 2-312(3) OF THE UNIFORM COMMERCIAL CODE AND/OR IN ANY OTHER

LICENSEES SHALL NOT BE RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY INTERRUPTIONS OF SERVICE, INCLUDING,
BUT NOT LIMITED TO, ISP DISRUPTIONS, SOFTWARE OR HARDWARE FAILURES, OR ANY
OTHER EVENT WHICH MAY RESULT IN A LOSS OF DATA OR DISRUPTION OF SERVICE. Some
states do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential
damages, or allow limitations on how long an implied warranty lasts, so the
above limitations may not apply.

10. Equitable Remedies. You hereby agree that Sierra Entertainment would
be irreparably damaged if the terms of this License Agreement were not
specifically enforced, and therefore you agree that Sierra Entertainment shall
be entitled, without bond, other security, or proof of damages, to appropriate
equitable remedies with respect to breaches of this License Agreement, in
addition to such other remedies as Sierra Entertainment may otherwise have
available to it under applicable laws. In the event any litigation is brought

in such litigation shall be entitled to recover from the other party all the
costs, attorneys’ fees and other expenses incurred by such prevailing party in
the litigation.

you from making or authorizing the making of another copy or adaptation of the
Program, provided, however, that (1) such new copy or adaptation is created as
an essential step in your utilization of the Program in accordance with the
terms of this License Agreement and for NO OTHER PURPOSE; or (2) such new copy
or adaptation is for archival purposes ONLY and all archival copies are
destroyed in the event of your Transfer of the Program, the Termination of this
Agreement or other circumstances under which your continued use of the Program
ceases to be rightful.

made and executed in the State of California, and any dispute arising hereunder
shall be resolved in accordance with the law of California. You agree that any
claim asserted in any legal proceeding by one of the parties against the other
shall be commenced and maintained in any state or federal court located in the
State of California, County of Los Angeles, having subject matter jurisdiction
with respect to the dispute between the parties. This License Agreement may be
amended, altered or modified only by an instrument in writing, specifying such
amendment, alteration or modification, executed by both parties. In the event
that any provision of this License Agreement shall be held by a court or other
tribunal of competent jurisdiction to be unenforceable, such provision will be
enforced to the maximum extent permissible, and the remaining portions of this
License Agreement shall remain in full force and effect. This License Agreement
constitutes and contains the entire agreement between the parties with respect
to the subject matter hereof and supersedes any prior oral or written
agreements.
I hereby acknowledge that I have read and understand the foregoing License
Agreement and agree that the action of installing the Program is an
acknowledgment of my agreement to be bound by the terms and conditions of the
License Agreement contained herein. I also acknowledge and agree that this
