|
||
|
||
8.3 This Licence shall immediately terminate and shall be unavailable to you if you or any party affiliated to you asserts any patents against ARM, ARM affiliates, third parties who have a valid licence from ARM for the CMSIS Deliverables, or any customers or distributors of any of them based upon a claim that your (or your affiliate) patent is Necessary to implement the CMSIS Deliverables. In this Licence: (i) "affiliate" means any entity controlling, controlled by or under
|
||
common control with a party (in fact or in law, via voting securities, management control or otherwise) and "affiliated" shall be construed accordingly; (ii) "assert" means to allege infringement in legal or administrative proceedings, or proceedings before any other competent trade, arbitral or international authority; and (iii) “Necessary” means with respect to any claims of any patent, those claims which, without the appropriate permission of the patent owner, will be
|
||

|
||
|
||
8.4 Upon termination of this Licence, you shall stop using the CMSIS Deliverables and destroy all copies of the CMSIS Deliverables in your possession. The provisions of clauses 5, 6, 7, 8 and 9 shall survive termination of this Licence.

|
||
9. GENERAL.
|
||
|
||
This Licence is governed by English Law. Except where ARM agrees otherwise in a written contract signed by you and ARM, this is the only agreement between you and ARM relating to the CMSIS Deliverables and it may only be modified by written agreement between you and ARM. Except as expressly agreed in writing, this Licence may not be modified by purchase orders, advertising or other representation by any person. If any clause or sentence in this Licence is held by a court of law to be
|
||
illegal or unenforceable the remaining provisions of this Licence shall not be affected thereby. The failure by ARM to enforce any of the provisions of this Licence, unless waived in writing, shall not constitute a waiver of ARM's rights to enforce such provision or any other provision of this Licence in the future. This Licence may not be assigned without the prior written consent of ARM.
