workmanship under normal use; and (B) the Software substantially
conforms to the Documentation.	Except for the foregoing, the Software

warranty does not apply to software corrections or upgrades.

6.	Infringement Indemnity.

(a)	We will, at our expense, defend any suit brought against you
by an unaffiliated third party based upon a claim that the Software
infringes a valid patent, trademark or copyright or misappropriates
a third- party trade secret.  The terms "misappropriation" and
"trade secret" are used as defined in the Uniform Trade Secrets Act,
except in case of claims arising under any claim governed by the
laws of any jurisdiction outside the United States, in which case
"misappropriation" will mean intentionally unlawful use and "trade
secret" will mean "undisclosed information" as specified in Article
39.2 of the Trade- Related Aspects of Intellectual Property Rights
(TRIPS) agreement.  We will pay costs and damages (including reasonable
attorneys" fees) finally awarded against you, or agreed in settlement
by us, directly attributable to any such claim and will bear all
reasonable costs of the investigation and defense of the claim,
but only on condition that (A) you notify us in writing of such
claim promptly following receipt of notice, (B) we have sole control
of the defense and settlement negotiations, (C) you provide us all
information and communications received by you concerning such claim,
and (D) you provide reasonable assistance to us when requested. You
will have the right to participate in the defense with counsel of
your own choosing at your expense; provided that such representation
does not interfere with our right to control the defense.

(b)	 We will have the right, at our option and expense, to (A)
obtain for you rights to use the Software, (B) replace or modify the
Software so that it becomes non-infringing or (C) accept return of
the Software, upon which the applicable license(s) will terminate,
in exchange for a credit not to exceed the purchase price paid
by you for such Software based upon a three (3) year straight line
depreciation. The foregoing, subject to the restrictions set forth in
Section 6(c) below, states our exclusive liability to you concerning
infringement.

(c)	Restrictions.  We will have no liability for any claim of
infringement based on (A) use of a superseded release of the Software
where the subsequent release is equally available to you at no cost
and is non-infringing; (B) use of the Software in combination with
equipment or software not supplied by us (including Open Source
Components) where the Software would not itself be infringing; (C)
use of the Software in an application or environment not described in
the Documentation; (D) software or technology not developed by us;
(E) Software that has been altered or modified in any way by anyone
other than us or our authorized agents; (F) your continued use of the
Software after we notify you to discontinue use due to such a claim;
or (G) sale or use of the Software (1) in any country into which the
U.S. has embargoed or restricted the export of goods or services or
(2) to or by any person or entity who you know or have reason to
know will utilize the Software or portion thereof in the design,
development or production of nuclear, chemical or biological weapons;
or (3) to or by any person or entity who has been prohibited from
participating in U.S. export transactions by any federal agency
of the U.S. government including but not limited to anyone on the
U.S. Treasury Department's list of Specially Designated Nationals or
the U.S. Department of Commerce's Table of Denial Orders.

7.	Notice to U.S. Government End Users.  The Software and
Documentation qualify as "commercial items," as that term is defined at
Federal Acquisition Regulation ("FAR") (48 C.F.R.) 2.101, consisting
of "commercial computer software" and "commercial computer software
documentation" as such terms are used in FAR 12.212.  Consistent
with FAR 12.212 and DoD FAR Supp. 227.7202-1 through 227.7202-4,
and notwithstanding any other FAR or other contractual clause to the
contrary in any agreement into which this License may be incorporated,
you may provide to a government end user or, if this License is direct,
government end user will acquire, the Software and Documentation with
only those rights set forth in this License. Use of either the Software
or Documentation or both constitutes agreement by the government that
the Software and Documentation are "commercial computer software"
and "commercial computer software documentation" and constitutes
acceptance of the rights and restrictions herein.

8.	DISCLAIMER; LIMITATION OF REMEDY.  EXCEPT FOR THE WARRANTIES
SPECIFICALLY DESCRIBED HEREIN, WE AND OUR LICENSORS DISCLAIM ANY
AND ALL WARRANTIES AND GUARANTEES, EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR OTHERWISE,
ARISING, WITH RESPECT TO THE SOFTWARE, PRODUCTS, DATA, SPECIFICATIONS,
OR DOCUMENTATION DELIVERED HEREUNDER, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED
TO THE WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY, WARRANTY OF NON-INFRINGEMENT
OR TITLE AND THE WARRANTY OF FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.
WE MAKE NO WARRANTY CONCERNING THE COMPLETENESS OR ACCURACY OF THE
DATA OR INFORMATION OBTAINED OR DERIVED THROUGH THE USE OF THE DATA
INCLUDED IN THE SOFTWARE AND THE DATA IS PROVIDED "AS IS".  WE HAVE NOT
AUTHORIZED ANYONE TO MAKE ANY REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES OTHER THAN
AS PROVIDED ABOVE OR TO OTHERWISE MODIFY THE TERMS OF THIS LICENSE.
THE COLLECTIVE LIABILITY OF US AND OUR LICENSORS (A) FOR PERPETUAL
LICENSED SOFTWARE  LICENSED UNDER THIS LICENSE WILL BE LIMITED TO
THE AMOUNT PAID FOR THE SOFTWARE AND (B) FOR SOFTWARE OTHER THAN
PERPETUAL LICENSED SOFTWARE WILL BE LIMITED TO THE AMOUNT PAID FOR
THE SOFTWARE IN THE TWELVE (12) MONTHS PRIOR TO THE EVENT GIVING RISE
TO THE CLAIM.  WE AND OUR LICENSORS WILL NOT HAVE ANY OBLIGATION OR
LIABILITY, WHETHER ARISING IN CONTRACT (INCLUDING WARRANTY), TORT
(INCLUDING ACTIVE, PASSIVE OR IMPUTED NEGLIGENCE, STRICT LIABILITY
OR PRODUCT LIABILITY) OR OTHERWISE FOR ANY PUNITIVE, EXEMPLARY,
SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL OR INDIRECT DAMAGES, INCLUDING
BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF USE, LOSS OF DATA, BUSINESS INTERRUPTION,
LOSS OF REVENUE, LOSS OF BUSINESS OR OTHER FINANCIAL LOSS ARISING
OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH THE SOFTWARE OR OTHER GOODS OR SERVICES
FURNISHED TO YOU BY US, EVEN IF ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH
DAMAGES. TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, OUR LICENSORS WILL NOT HAVE
ANY LIABILITY FOR ANY DIRECT DAMAGES OF ANY KIND UNDER THIS LICENSE.
THE LIMITATIONS CONTAINED IN THIS SECTION WILL APPLY NOTWITHSTANDING
ANY FAILURE OF AN ESSENTIAL PURPOSE OF ANY LIMITED REMEDY PROVIDED
UNDER ANY TERM OF THIS LICENSE.  SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE
LIMITATION OR EXCLUSION OF LIABILITY FOR INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL
DAMAGES. IN THOSE JURISDICTIONS, SUCH INAPPLICABILITY WILL NOT AFFECT
THE REMAINDER OF THE PROVISIONS IN THIS SECTION.

9.	Non-Production Use Software.  If you purchase a Product or
license Software designated as "non-production," "non-commercial,"
"lab" or "development" in the applicable Sales Documentation for such
Product or Software ("Non-Production Software"), you may use the
Non-Production Software to conduct testing and development in your
non-production environment only and not to manage or protect data
traffic or applications in the ordinary course of your business. You
agree that any use of Non- Production Software in violation of the
preceding sentence is a material breach of this License.

10.	Evaluation Software.  If the Software is "Evaluation Software,"

attempt to defeat or circumvent any duration mechanism for Evaluation
Software. You also agree that you will not use any Evaluation Software
beyond the prescribed license duration.

11.	Software Hosted in a Public Cloud.  If you use the Software in
a public cloud environment, you may only use the Software in object
code form in the cloud provider"s ("Cloud Provider") environment.
In accordance with section 3(e), you may not copy any portion of the
Software out of the Cloud Provider environment.  Each instance of
the Software running in the Cloud Provider"s environment requires its
own license key when you are using a bring-your-own-license offering
from the Cloud Provider.  If you are using a utility offering (e.g.,
hourly) from the Cloud Provider, each instance is licensed and paid for
separately within the Cloud Provider"s infrastructure.	IN ADDITION
TO THE DISCLAIMERS SET FORTH IN SECTION 8 ABOVE, AND NOTWITHSTANDING
ANY TERMS TO THE CONTRARY IN THIS LICENSE OR ANY REPRESENTATIONS OR
WARRANTIES OF THE APPLICABLE CLOUD OR SIMILAR ENVIRONMENT, SOFTWARE
PROVIDED BY A CLOUD PROVIDER AND NOT OBTAINED FROM F5 IS PROVIDED
"AS IS" AND POSSIBLY WITH FAULTS.

12.	Termination.  The license granted in Section 2 will
automatically terminate if you fail to comply with any of the terms
and conditions set forth herein.  Upon termination or expiration of
the license, you will stop all instances running in your private
network and destroy any copies of the Software and Documentation
