manuals, training materials, specifications or otherwise) specifically pertaining to the
equipment and made available by LAUNCH with the equipment in any manner (including on

Customer with the interface information needed to achieve interoperability between the

fee, if any. Customer shall observe strict obligations of confidentiality with respect to such
information and shall use such information in compliance with any applicable terms and
conditions upon which LAUNCH makes such information available.

ALREADY HOLDS A VALID LICENSE TO THE ORIGINAL SOFTWARE AND HAS PAID THE
APPLICABLE FEE FOR THE UPGRADE OR ADDITIONAL COPIES; (2) USE OF
UPGRADES IS LIMITED TO LAUNCH EQUIPMENT FOR WHICH CUSTOMER IS THE
ORIGINAL END USER PURCHASER OR LESSEE OR WHO OTHERWISE HOLDS A VALID

proprietary notices on all copies, in any form, of the Materials in the same form and manner

expressly authorized in this Agreement, Customer shall not make any copies or duplicates of
any Materials without the prior written permission of LAUNCH.

Term and Termination. This Agreement and the license granted herein shall remain effective
until terminated. Customer may terminate this Agreement and the license at any time by
destroying all copies of Materials and any Document. Customer’s rights under this Agreement
will terminate immediately without notice from LAUNCH if Customer fails to comply with any
provision of this Agreement. Upon termination, Customer shall destroy all copies of Software
