1. Subject of agreement  
   The subject of this agreement is the software ActiveGige, the operating manuals, and all other accompanying material. It will be referred to henceforth as ActiveGige SDK.  
 
2. Grant of license  
   A&B Software LLC grants the Licensee a non-exclusive, non-transferable, personal and worldwide license to use one copy of ActiveGige SDK in the development of an end-user application, as described in section 3 (below). This license is for a single developer/one computer and not for an entire company. If additional programmers wish to use ActiveGige SDK, additional copies must be licensed.  
 
3. End user application  
   An end user application is a specific application program that is licensed to a person or firm for business or personal use. The files which are not listed under section 5 must not be included with the end user application. Furthermore, the end user must not be in a position to be able to neither modify the program, nor to create ActiveGige SDK based programs. Likewise, the end user must not be given the ActiveGige SDK serial number.  
 
4. Royalties
