NO ORAL OR WRITTEN INFORMATION OR ADVICE GIVEN BY TI WILL CREATE ANY WARRANTY.

NOTHING CONTAINED IN THIS AGREEMENT WILL BE CONSTRUED AS A WARRANTY OR REPRESENTATION BY TI TO MAINTAIN PRODUCTION OF ANY TI DEVICE OR OTHER HARDWARE OR SOFTWARE WITH WHICH THE LICENSED MATERIALS MAY BE USED.

YOU ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT THE LICENSED MATERIALS HAVE NOT BEEN TESTED OR CERTIFIED BY ANY GOVERNMENT AGENCY OR INDUSTRY REGULATORY ORGANIZATION OR ANY OTHER THIRD PARTY ORGANIZATION. YOU AGREE TO USE YOUR INDEPENDENT JUDGMENT IN DEVELOPING YOUR PRODUCTS. YOU AGREE THAT PRIOR TO USING OR INCORPORATING OR DISTRIBUTING THE LICENSED MATERIALS IN OR WITH ANY COMMERCIAL PRODUCT THAT YOU WILL THOROUGHLY TEST THE PRODUCT AND THE FUNCTIONALITY OF THE LICENSED MATERIALS IN OR WITH THAT PRODUCT AND BE SOLELY RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY PROBLEMS OR FAILURES.

CERTAIN LICENSED MATERIALS MAY BE PRE-RELEASE VERSIONS. PRE-RELEASE VERSIONS DO NOT REPRESENT A FINAL AND GENERALLY AVAILABLE VERSION OF THE LICENSED MATERIALS, AND MAY BE UNDERGOING TESTING AND FURTHER MODIFICATION BY TI. THE PRE-RELEASE VERSIONS ARE NOT AT THE LEVEL OF PERFORMANCE AND COMPATIBILITY OF A FINAL RELEASE VERSION. YOU ACKNOWLEDGE THAT SUCH PRE-RELEASE VERSIONS MAY CONTAIN IRREGULARITIES NOT FOUND IN A FINAL RELEASE VERSION, SUCH AS BUGS, ERRORS, INCONSISTENCIES AND OTHER PROBLEMS, AND THEREFORE ARE NOT INTENDED FOR USE IN PRODUCTION ACTIVITIES OR PRODUCTION PRODUCTS.

If You intend to use the Licensed Materials in the performance of a U.S. Government contract or subcontract where Federal Acquisition Regulations, Defense Federal Acquisition Regulations Supplements, or other applicable government procurement rules or regulations (collectively, "Government Procurement Regulations") will apply, You will inform TI in writing of each applicable Government Procurement Regulation before You submit an applicable purchase order for the TI products used in conjunction with the Licensed Materials. Unless otherwise agreed upon in writing and signed by TI, (i) no Government Procurement Regulations will apply, (ii) TI will not provide certified cost or pricing data, and (iii) Cost Accounting Standards, Defective Pricing, and Audit requirements will not apply. Neither the U.S. Government nor any contractor under a U.S. Government contract or subcontract receives any rights in TI's technical data and computer software beyond the rights provided in this Agreement.

15.	Export Control.

a.	Exports, re-exports, and transfers of Licensed Materials may be subject to U.S. export controls and sanctions.  You acknowledge and agree that: i) You will comply with all applicable laws and regulations; ii) Licensed Materials may not be exported, re-exported, sold or transferred to U.S. embargoed, sanctioned, or restricted destinations, persons, or entities without first obtaining any necessary governmental authorization; and iii) You will provide notice of these compliance obligations to any party obtaining Licensed Materials from You.

b.	Unless any necessary U.S. and other applicable government authorizations are obtained in advance, You may not export, re-export, transfer, purchase, or sell (including, without limitation, by permitting the Licensed Materials to be downloaded) any Licensed Materials: (i) for a military end use; (ii) to a military end user; or (iii) for the design, development, fabrication, or use of nuclear, chemical, or biological weapons or missile technology.

c.	Each party shall, at its own expense, secure export and import authorizations necessary to fulfill its obligations under this Section 15.  You will indemnify and hold TI (including its agents and representatives) harmless against any damages, costs, losses, and/or liabilities arising out of any non-compliance by You with this section.  If any required authorization cannot be obtained, or in the event You breach this Section 15, TI may terminate, cancel, or otherwise be excused from any obligations that it may have under this Agreement.  Licensed Materials classifications are for TI convenience only and shall not be construed as a representation or warranty of any kind; You are responsible for your own compliance obligations.   This section will survive any termination or expiration of this Agreement.

16.	Governing Law; Remedies. This Agreement will be governed by and interpreted under the laws of the State of Texas, without reference to conflict of laws principles. This Agreement will not be governed by the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods, or by the Uniform Computer Information Transactions Act (UCITA). The parties agree that non-exclusive jurisdiction for any dispute arising out of or relating to this Agreement lies within the courts in the State of Texas. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any judgment may be enforced in any United States or foreign court, and either party may seek injunctive relief in any United States or foreign court. You agree that any breach of the Agreement or use of the Licensed Materials beyond the scope of the license granted hereunder would cause irreparable harm for which TI's remedies at law would be inadequate. You agree that TI will be entitled, in addition to any other remedies available to it at law or in equity, to injunctive relief to prevent the breach or threatened breach of any of Your obligations under this Agreement, without the posting of any bond.

17.	Severability; Waiver. If a court of competent jurisdiction finds any provision of the Agreement unenforceable, that provision will be enforced to the maximum extent possible to effectuate the intent of the parties, and the remainder of the Agreement will continue in full force and effect. Failure by TI to enforce any provision of this Agreement will not be deemed a waiver of future enforcement of that or any other provision in this Agreement or any other agreement that may be in place between the parties.

18.	PRC Provisions. If You are located in the People's Republic of China ("PRC") or if the Licensed Materials will be sent to the PRC, the following provisions will apply and will supersede any other provisions in this Agreement concerning the same subject:

a.	Registration Requirements. You will be solely responsible for performing all acts and obtaining all approvals that may be required in connection with this Agreement by the government of the PRC, including but not limited to registering pursuant to, and otherwise complying with, the PRC Measures on the Administration of Software Products, Management Regulations on Technology Import-Export, and Technology Import and Export Contract Registration Management Rules. Upon receipt of such approvals from the government authorities, You will forward evidence of all such approvals to TI for its records. If You fail to obtain such approval or registration, You will be solely responsible for any losses, damages or costs resulting therefrom, and will indemnify TI for all such losses, damages or costs.

b.	Governing Language. This Agreement is written and executed in the English language. If a translation of this Agreement is required for any purpose, including but not limited to registration of the Agreement under any governmental laws, regulations or rules, You will be solely responsible for creating such translation. Any translation of this Agreement into a language other than English is intended solely to comply with such laws or for reference purposes, and the English language version will be authoritative and controlling.

19.	Contingencies. TI will not be in breach of this Agreement and will not be liable for any non-performance or delay in performance if such non-performance or delay is due to a force majeure event or other circumstances beyond TI's reasonable control.

20.	Entire Agreement. This is the entire agreement between You and TI, and this Agreement supersedes any prior agreement between the parties related to the subject matter of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any signed and effective software license agreement relating to the subject matter will take precedence over this Agreement if such agreement states it will control regardless of any prior or subsequent click-wrap, shrink-wrap, or web-wrap software license agreement. No amendment or modification of this Agreement will be effective unless in writing and signed by a duly authorized representative of TI. You warrant and represent that You have obtained all authorizations and other applicable consents required empowering You to enter into this Agreement.
