1.Grant of License. You may install and use one (and only one) copy of the Software on the computer on which the Hardware is being installed.

You may NOT: sublicense, assign, or distribute copies of the Software to others; decompile, reverse engineer, disassemble or otherwise reduce the Software or any part thereof to a human perceivable form; modify, adapt, translate or create derivative works based upon the Software or any part thereof; or rent, lease, loan or otherwise operate for profit the Software.
3.Transfer. You may transfer the Software only where you are also transferring the Hardware. In such cases, you must remove all copies of the Software from any devices onto which you have installed it, and must ensure that the party to whom you transfer the Hardware receives this License Agreement and Limited Warranty.
4.Upgrades Covered. This license covers the Software originally provided to you with the Hardware, and any additional software that you may receive from SSN, whether delivered via tangible media (CD ROM or floppy disk), down loaded from SSN or delivered through customer support.
