In this Agreement, "Software" means (a) the object code version of the computer

1. EVALUATION LICENSE DURING THE EVALUATION PERIOD
(a) Evaluation License during the Evaluation Period. Upon Licensee`s
agreement to be bound by the terms of this Agreement as provided above,
WORKSHARE grants to Licensee a non-exclusive, non-transferable license to use the Software solely for purposes of evaluating and testing the Software as provided in this Agreement. Such license will be effective for seven (7) calendar days after installation of the Software. The seven-day evaluation period and any extensions thereof that are granted by WORKSHARE in its sole discretion are referred to as the "Evaluation Period" in this Agreement.
(b) Terms and Conditions during the Evaluation Period. During the
Evaluation Period, all of the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall be applicable to Licensee`s use of the Software, except for provisions herein that expressly indicate that they apply after the Evaluation Period only.
(c) No Rights after the Evaluation Period unless License is Purchased by
Licensee. After the Evaluation Period, (i) this Agreement will terminate, (ii)
WORKSHARE shall have no obligation to enable Licensee to use the Software, and (iii) Licensee may not use the Software for any purpose, unless Licensee acquires a license to use the Software under Paragraph 2 below and is granted such license by WORKSHARE under Paragraph 2 below.
2. ACQUIRING LICENSE TO USE AFTER THE EVALUATION PERIOD
AND GRANT OF LICENSE
(a) Acquiring Licenses for Internal Use after the Evaluation Period, License
Fee and Subscription Fee. If Licensee wishes to continue using the Software after the Evaluation Period, then WORKSHARE requires that Licensee pay a license fee (the "License Fee"), together with a subscription fee (the "Subscription Fee") for technical support for the first year, as such License Fee and Subscription Fee are quoted by WORKSHARE in writing to Licensee after receipt by WORKSHARE of (1) a telephone call or email from Licensee requesting such quotation and (2) written certification from
Licensee of (i) Licensee`s name, (ii) state or province of incorporation or formation, (iii) telephone and fax numbers and address for communications, (iv) name and email address of contact person, (v) address of Licensee`s principal place of business and if requested, the addresses of all offices of Licensee, (vi) the total number of users of Licensee`s document management system (DMS) or general software system at all offices of Licensee, if based on an enterprise wide schedule, or the total number of user licenses to be purchased.
(b) License for Internal Use after the Evaluation Period. Upon receipt by
WORKSHARE from Licensee of payment of the License Fee and the Subscription Fee for the first year, WORKSHARE will provide Licensee with an alpha-numeric key (the "Subscription Key") to enable Licensee to use the Software for up to the maximum number of users or user licenses for which the License Fee and Subscription Fee have been paid to WORKSHARE. Effective upon the sending by WORKSHARE to Licensee of the Subscription Key (the "Effective Date"), WORKSHARE grants to Licensee a nonexclusive, non-transferable, perpetual license to use the Software for internal use only,
subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement (except for Paragraph 1 and those provisions herein that expressly indicate that they apply only to the evaluation license in Paragraph 1 or the Evaluation Period).
(c) Size of the Enterprise and Definition of Site. Licensee agrees that the
License Fee and the Subscription Fee, if based on an enterprise wide schedule, payable by Licensee under this Agreement are based on the total number of users of Licensee`s document management system (DMS) or general software systems at the Site (as defined below), and Licensee represents to WORKSHARE that the total number of such users provided by Licensee to WORKSHARE by telephone or email pursuant to Section 2(a)
above was accurate as of the date such information was provided to WORKSHARE. "Site" shall mean all offices of Licensee.
(d) Maximum Number of Concurrent Users. If based on an enterprise wide
schedule, the license granted in Paragraph 2(b) is subject to the condition that no more than the number of users for which the License Fee and first-year Subscription Fee have been paid to WORKSHARE ("Maximum Number") may use the Software concurrently at any time, and Licensee shall not permit any users in excess of the Maximum Number of users to use the Software concurrently at any one time. The Subscription Key provided by WORKSHARE may enable no more than the Maximum Number of users to use the Software concurrently at any one time. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the number of users of Licensee`s document management system (DMS) or general software
system exceeds the Maximum Number by 15% or less, then upon receipt of a written notice of such increase in users from Licensee, WORKSHARE agrees to increase the Maximum Number of users by 15%, without any additional fees, and to send a supplement to the Subscription Key enabling additional users up to 15% of the Maximum Number to use the Software concurrently at any one time. If the number of users of Licensee`s document management system (DMS) or general software system exceeds the Maximum Number by more than 15%, then WORKSHARE will not increase the Maximum Number and will not send any supplement to the Subscription Key to enable additional users, unless and until Licensee pays an additional license fee, which will be calculated on the number of users in excess of the Maximum Number (i.e., in excess of the number of users for which the License Fee and first-year Subscription Fee have been
paid to WORKSHARE), and additional subscription fees, and also fulfills the other terms and conditions of such increase in users as required by WORKSHARE. If based on a user license schedule, then Licensee shall use no more than the number of user licenses of the Software purchased by Licensee.
(e) Separate Written License Agreement after the Evaluation Period.
NOTWITHSTANDING THE FOREGOING, if Licensee and WORKSHARE enter into a written license agreement that is separate from this electronic Agreement and that grants to Licensee a license to use the Software for internal use after the Evaluation Period, then such written license agreement will supersede and replace this electronic Agreement which shall terminate.
3. SUPPORT AFTER THE EVALUATION PERIOD
If Licensee has acquired a license to use the Software for internal use under
Paragraph 2 above, has paid the License Fee and the first-year Subscription Fee for one year and has received a Subscription Key from WORKSHARE, then for one (1) year commencing on the Effective Date and for subsequent one (1) year periods commencing on the anniversary dates of the Effective Date, to the extent Licensee pays the Subscription Fee for such subsequent one-year periods prior to the commencement of such one-year period (each such one-year period, hereinafter referred to as a "Subscription Period"), Licensee will be entitled to receive (a) technical support for the Software consisting of telephone, fax and e-mail information and advice, except that no support will be provided for portable or home computers not located at the Site or not owned or leased by Licensee, and (b) any updates of the Software generally made available by WORKSHARE to its subscribing licensees of the Software during the Subscription Period (collectively, "Software Support"). Such Software Support will be the obligation of Workshare Ltd. and will be provided by Workshare Ltd. or its designee(s). Requests for such technical support should be submitted to WORKSHARE,
which is one of the designees, or such other company as Workshare Ltd. may designate in writing to Licensee. The Subscription Fee for each such subsequent one-year period will be WORKSHARE`s standard subscription fee that is in effect for such year for the Software, which fee WORKSHARE may establish from time to time in its sole discretion. The provision of support and updates is subject to the approval of Workshare Ltd., and Workshare Ltd. may terminate such technical support and the providing of updates at any time by giving at least one hundred twenty (120) days` notice to Licensee prior to such termination, provided that Workshare Ltd. will refund a pro rata portion of the Subscription Fee already paid by Licensee for the period following such termination.
