the usernames, passwords and other identifiers necessary for the use of
Licensed Software, or use of another item that is subject to a Subscription,
diligently and that they do not disclose them to third parties. Customer must

(and each Authorized User) may not use, copy, modify, rent, loan, lease, sell,
sublicense, create derivative works from, transfer or distribute, the Licensed
Software for any purposes, or make the Licensed Software available to any
person or entity that is not an Authorized User, or assign its rights or
obligations under the Agreement to a third party. Furthermore, Customer shall
not decompile, disassemble, decode, adapt, or otherwise attempt to derive or
gain access to the source code of the Licensed Software, in whole or in part or
reverse engineer the Licensed Software or any elements of the Licensed
Software, or remove any proprietary notices from the Licensed Software, or use
the Licensed Software in any manner or for any purpose that infringes,
misappropriates, or otherwise violates any Intellectual Property Rights or
other right of any person, or that violates any applicable law. Customer shall
not use Licensed Software to develop, test, support or market services or
products that are competing with and/or provide similar functionality to the

worldwide, royalty-free, non-exclusive, limited License to Use Licensed
Software in Project(s).

individual Developer separately. For clarity, if the Project Result that
includes the Licensed Software is further developed or modified or is used as a
component or framework in a software development project or otherwise provides
the functionality of the Licensed Software for use in a software development
project, all Developers who Use Licensed Software in such context need to have
a valid Developer License.
4.3.1.4 The list of Developers can be changed by Customer, but after an
individual Developer has been designated by Customer, Customer may not
reallocate the Developer License from the designated Developer to another
Developer before sixty (60) days have passed from such designation.
4.3.1.5 Customer is entitled to Use Licensed Software for the purpose of
testing and building software applications as part of Customer’s Project. As

Customer to redistribute the Licensed Software in object code form only, and
only as embedded in Customer’s Project Result for use by end users of the
Project Result.
4.3.2.3. Customer may not distribute Licensed Software as a standalone product,
or as a part of any product other than Customer’s Project Result, or in any
form that allows any Licensed Software (or portion thereof) to be reused by any

not use the Licensed Software to develop, test, support or market services or
products that are competing with and/or provide similar functionality to the
Licensed Software (wrapping is forbidden).
4.3.2.4. For the avoidance of doubt, Customer’s end users of the Project Result
are not allowed to use the Licensed Software, or any portions thereof, for
software development or application development purposes unless they first
purchase a separate Developer License from Vaadin for each relevant end user.
Customer or the Developer must not grant end users of the Project Result any
right to further sublicense the Licensed Software or any portions thereof.
4.3.2.5. If the Order expressly grants Customer the right to redistribute or
offer access to all or a portion of the Licensed Software, then, in conjunction
with any such grant, Customer must comply with any limitations or requirements
specified in the Order or in these Commercial Terms, as applicable, and Vaadin
must distribute or offer access to the Project Result including the Licensed
Software subject to a license agreement or terms of use between Vaadin and each
customer of Customer accessing such Project Result that: (a) protects Vaadin’s
interests consistent with the terms contained in these Commercial Terms, (b)
prohibits Vaadin’s customer or other end user from any further distribution of
the Licensed Software, (c) includes a limitation of damages clause that, to the
