License version 9, December 13, 2010

ORACLE CORPORATION (“ORACLE”) IS WILLING TO LICENSE THE EXTENSION PACK (AS DEFINED IN

§ 1 BELOW) TO YOU ONLY UPON THE CONDITION THAT YOU ACCEPT ALL OF THE TERMS

CONTAINED IN THIS VIRTUALBOX PERSONAL USE AND EVALUATION LICENSE AGREEMENT

(“AGREEMENT”). PLEASE READ THE AGREEMENT CAREFULLY. BY DOWNLOADING OR INSTALLING

THE EXTENSION PACK, YOU ACCEPT THE FULL TERMS OF THIS AGREEMENT.

IF YOU ARE AGREEING TO THIS LICENSE ON BEHALF OF AN ENTITY OTHER THAN AN INDIVIDUAL

PERSON, YOU REPRESENT THAT YOU ARE BINDING AND HAVE THE RIGHT TO BIND THE ENTITY TO

THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF THIS AGREEMENT.

§ 1 Subject of Agreement. “Extension Pack”, as referred to in this Agreement, shall be the binary software package

“Oracle VM VirtualBox Extension Pack”, an extension of the open-source VirtualBox virtualization software.

VirtualBox allows for creating multiple virtual computers, each with different operating systems (“Guest Computers”),

on a physical computer with a specific operating system (“Host Computer”) and for installing and executing these

Guest Computers simultaneously. The Extension Pack consists of executable files in machine code for the Solaris,

Windows, Linux, and Mac OS X operating systems as well as other data files as required by the executable files at run-

time and documentation in electronic form. The Extension Pack includes all documentation and updates provided to

You by Oracle under this Agreement, and the terms of this Agreement will apply to all such documentation and updates

unless a different license is provided with an update or documentation.

§ 2 Grant of license. Oracle grants you a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, limited license without fees to

reproduce, install, execute, and use internally the Extension Pack on a Host Computer for your Personal Use,

Educational Use, or Evaluation. “Personal Use” requires that you use the Extension Pack on the same Host Computer

where you installed it yourself and that no more than one client connect to that Host Computer at a time for the purpose

of displaying Guest Computers remotely. “Educational use” is any use in an academic institution (schools, colleges and

universities, by teachers and students). “Evaluation” means testing the Extension Pack for a reasonable period (that is,

normally for a few weeks); after expiry of that term, you are no longer permitted to evaluate the Extension Pack.

§ 3 Restrictions and Reservation of Rights. (1) Any use beyond the provisions of § 2 is prohibited. The Extension

Pack and copies thereof provided to you under this Agreement are copyrighted and licensed, not sold, to you by Oracle.

Oracle reserves all copyrights and other intellectual property rights. This includes, but is not limited to, the right to

modify, make available or public, rent out, lease, lend or otherwise distribute the Extension Pack. This does not apply

as far as applicable law may require otherwise or if Oracle grants you additional rights of use in a separate agreement in

writing.

(2) You may not do any of the following: (a) modify the Extension Pack. However if the documentation accompanying

the Extension Pack lists specific portions of the Extension Pack, such as header files, class libraries, reference source

code, and/or redistributable files, that may be handled differently, you may do so only as provided in the

documentation; (b) rent, lease, lend or encumber the Extension Pack; (c) remove or alter any proprietary legends or

notices contained in the Extension Pack; or (d) decompile, or reverse engineer the Extension Pack (unless enforcement

of this restrictions is prohibited by applicable law).

(3) The Extension Pack is not designed, licensed or intended for use in the design, construction, operation or

maintenance of any nuclear facility, and Oracle and its licensors disclaim any express or implied warranty of fitness for

such uses.

(4) No right, title or interest in or to any trademark, service mark, logo or trade name of Oracle or its licensors is

granted under this Agreement.

§ 4 Termination. The Agreement is effective on the Date you receive the Extension Pack and remains effective until

terminated. Your rights under this Agreement will terminate immediately without notice from Oracle if you materially

breach it or take any action in derogation of Oracle's and/or its licensors' rights to the Extension Pack. Oracle may

terminate this Agreement should any product become, or in Oracle's reasonable opinion likely to become, the subject of

a claim of intellectual property infringement or trade secret misappropriation. Upon termination, you will cease use of,

and destroy, the Extension Pack and confirm compliance in writing to Oracle. Sections 3-9, inclusive, will survive

termination of the Agreement.

§ 5 Disclaimer of Warranty. TO THE EXTENT NOT PROHIBITED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ORACLE

PROVIDES THE EXTENSION PACK “AS IS” WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED

OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY,

FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE OR NON-INFRINGEMENT, EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT THAT

THESE DISCLAIMERS ARE HELD TO BE LEGALLY INVALID. The entire risk as to the quality and performance

of the Extension Pack is with you. Should it prove defective, you assume the cost of all necessary servicing, repair, or

correction. In addition, Oracle shall be allowed to provide updates to the Extension Pack in urgent cases. You are then

obliged to install such updates. Such an urgent case includes, but is not limited to, a claim of rights to the Extension

Pack by a third party.

§ 6 Limitation of Liability. TO THE EXTENT NOT PROHIBITED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IN NO EVENT WILL

ORACLE OR ITS LICENSORS BE LIABLE FOR ANY LOST REVENUE, PROFIT OR DATA, OR FOR SPECIAL,

INDIRECT, CONSEQUENTIAL, INCIDENTAL OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, HOWEVER CAUSED

REGARDLESS OF THE THEORY OF LIABILITY, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THE USE OF OR

INABILITY TO USE EXTENSION PACK, EVEN IF ORACLE HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF

SUCH DAMAGES. In no event will Oracle's liability to you, whether in contract, tort (including negligence), or

otherwise, exceed the amount paid by you for the Extension Pack under this Agreement. Some states do not allow the

exclusion of incidental or consequential damages, so some of the terms above may not be applicable to you.

§ 7 Third Party Code. Portions of the Extension Pack may be provided with notices and open source licenses from

communities and third parties that govern the use of those portions, and any licenses granted hereunder do not alter any

rights and obligations You may have under such open source licenses, however, the disclaimer of warranty and

limitation of liability provisions in this Agreement will apply to all the Extension Pack.

§ 8 Export Regulations. The Extension Pack and all documents, technical data, and any other materials delivered

under this Agreement are subject to U.S. export control laws and may be subject to export or import regulations in

other countries. You agree to comply strictly with these laws and regulations and acknowledge that you have the

responsibility to obtain any licenses to export, re-export, or import as may be required after delivery to you.

§ 9 U.S. Government Restricted Rights. If the Extension Pack is being acquired by or on behalf of the U.S.

Government or by a U.S. Government prime contractor or subcontractor (at any tier), then the Government's rights in

the Extension Pack and accompanying documentation will be only as set forth in this Agreement; this is in accordance

with 48 CFR 227.7201 through 227.7202-4 (for Department of Defense (DOD) acquisitions) and with 48 CFR 2.101

and 12.212 (for non-DOD acquisitions).

§ 10 Miscellaneous. This Agreement is the entire agreement between you and Oracle relating to its subject matter. It

supersedes all prior or contemporaneous oral or written communications, proposals, representations and warranties and

prevails over any conflicting or additional terms of any quote, order, acknowledgment, or other communication

between the parties relating to its subject matter during the term of this Agreement. No modification of this Agreement

will be binding, unless in writing and signed by an authorized representative of each party. If any provision of this

Agreement is held to be unenforceable, this Agreement will remain in effect with the provision omitted, unless

omission would frustrate the intent of the parties, in which case this Agreement will immediately terminate. Course of

dealing and other standard business conditions of the parties or the industry shall not apply. This Agreement is

governed by the substantive and procedural laws of California and you and Oracle agree to submit to the exclusive

jurisdiction of, and venue in, the courts in San Francisco, San Mateo, or Santa Clara counties in California in any

dispute arising out of or relating to this Agreement.
