1. License.

a. Definition of “Site” A “site” is defined as an institution or university identified by their unique NCES or IPEDS code - if a “Site” does not have a NCES or IPEDS code, a unique singular physical mailing address for a single building will be used as the definition of “Site”.

Robomatter grants the Single (1) User Licensee a non-exclusive, non-transferable right and license to use the ROBOTC Software solely for the purpose of education and robot controller programming. The Single (1) User license under this Agreement may be loaded on up to two (2) computers owned and used by the primary user of the software.

e. Building “Site” License. Robomatter grants the Building Site License Licensee a non-exclusive, non-transferable right and license to use the ROBOTC Software solely for the purpose of education and robot controller programming. All building licenses are delivered as single year-long (365 day) term licenses – the license’s term begins with the date of license delivery to the customer.

The number of simultaneous users and classrooms for a building “site” license are defined and controlled by the license purchased - 1 Classroom / 30 Floating Seats, 2 Classroom / 60 Floating Seats, 3 Classroom / 90 Floating Seats, or Unlimited Classroom / Unlimited Floating Seats - for a single physical “site”. Licensee may install the software on as many computers within a single site, but may not simultaneously use more than the allocated number of installations granted by the purchased license.

f. Recovering Software Licenses. If during the term of the license or for up to two (2) years after the license is purchased, whichever amount of time is shorter, the Licensee has a hardware failure, computer upgrade, or technical issue that requires reactivation of the licensed software on another computer - the Licensee is granted the ability to remotely deactivate an existing licensed workstation via an online interface and/or by contact Customer Support to deactivate an existing installation. This process will be allowed so long as the total number of installations is no more than the allocated number of installations granted by the purchased license.

2. Restrictions on Use; Non-Disclosure.
