Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Impinj hereby grants to Licensee a limited, royalty-free, worldwide, non-exclusive, perpetual and irrevocable (except as set forth below), non-transferable license, without right of sublicense, to (a) use the Software Tools and (b) only with respect to Software Tools provided in source code form, modify and create derivative works of such Software Tools, in each case, solely for Licensee’s internal development related to the deployment of Impinj products (“Purpose”). The Software Tools may only be used by employees of Licensee that must have access to the Software Tools in connection with the Purpose.
3. TERMINATION. Impinj may immediately terminate this Agreement if Licensee breaches any provision hereof. Upon the termination of this Agreement, Licensee must (a) discontinue all use of the Software Tools, (b) uninstall the Software Tools from its systems, (c) destroy or return to Impinj all copies of the Software Tools and any other materials provided by Impinj, and (d) promptly provide Impinj with written confirmation (including via email) of Licensee’s compliance with these provisions.

Impinj and its suppliers own and retain all right, title, and interest, including all intellectual property rights, in and to the Software Tools. Except for those rights expressly granted in this Agreement, no other rights are granted, either express or implied, to Licensee. Impinj reserves the right to develop, price and sell software products that have features similar to or competitive with Software Tools. Licensee grants Impinj a limited, royalty-free, worldwide, perpetual and irrevocable, transferable, sublicensable, license to Licensee’s derivative works of Software Tools; provided that Licensee has no obligation under this Agreement to deliver to Impinj any such derivative works.
5. CONFIDENTIALITY. In order to protect the trade secrets and proprietary know-how contained in the Software Tools, Licensee will not decompile, disassemble, or reverse engineer, or otherwise attempt to gain access to the source code or algorithms of the Software Tools (unless Impinj provides the Software Tools in source code format). Licensee will maintain the confidentiality of and not disclose to any third party: (a) all non-public information disclosed by Impinj to Licensee under this Agreement and (b) all performance data and all other information obtained through the Software Tools.

THESE LIMITATIONS WILL APPLY NOTWITHSTANDING ANY FAILURE OF ESSENTIAL PURPOSE OF ANY LIMITED REMEDY IN THIS AGREEMENT.
8. THIRD PARTY SOFTWARE. The Software Tools may contain software created by a third party. Licensee’s use of any such third party software is subject to the applicable license terms and this Agreement does not alter those license terms. Licensee may not subject any portion of the Software Tools to an open source license.
9. RESTRICTED USE. Licensee will comply with all applicable laws and regulations to preclude the acquisition by any governmental agency of unlimited rights to technical data, software, and documentation provided with Software Tools, and include the appropriate “Restricted Rights” or “Limited Rights” notices required by the applicable U.S. or foreign government agencies. Licensee will comply in all respects with all U.S. and foreign export and re-export laws and regulations applicable to the technology and documentation provided hereunder.
