1. License Grant.
This is a license, not a sales agreement, between you and Fortinet. The term "Software", as used throughout this Agreement, includes all Fortinet
and third party firmware and software provided to you with, or incorporated into, Fortinet appliances and any stand-alone software provided to you
by Fortinet, with the exception of any open source software contained in Fortinet’s Products which is discussed in detail in section 15 below, and the
term “Software” includes any accompanying documentation, any updates and enhancements of the software or firmware provided to you by Fortinet,
at its option. Fortinet grants to you a non-transferable (except as provided in section 5 ("Transfer") and section 15 ("Open Source Software") below),
non-exclusive, revocable (in the event of your failure to comply with these terms or in the event Fortinet is not properly paid for the applicable Product)
license to use the Software solely for your internal business purposes (provided, if a substantial portion of your business is to provide managed
service provider services to your end-customers, you may use the Software embedded in FortiGate and supporting hardware appliances to provide
those services, subject to the other restrictions in this Agreement), in accordance with the terms set forth in this Agreement and subject to any further
restrictions in Fortinet documentation, and solely on the Fortinet appliance, or, in the case of blades, CPUs or databases, on the single blade, CPU
or database on which Fortinet installed the Software or, for stand-alone Software, solely on a single computer running a validly licensed copy of the
operating system for which the Software was designed, or, in the case of blades, CPUs or databases, on a single blade, CPU or database. For clarity,
notwithstanding anything to the contrary, all licenses of Software to be installed on blades, CPUs or databases are licensed on a per single blade,
solely for one blade and not for multiple blades that may be installed in a chassis, per single CPU or per single database basis, as applicable. The
Software is "in use" on any Fortinet appliances when it is loaded into temporary memory (i.e. RAM). You agree that, except for the limited, specific
license rights granted in this section 1, you receive no license rights to the Software.
2. Limitation on Use.
You may not attempt to, and, if you are a corporation, you are responsible to prevent your employees and contractors from attempting to, (a) modify,
translate, reverse engineer, decompile, disassemble, create derivative works based on, sublicense, or distribute the Software; (b) rent or lease any
rights in the Software in any form to any third party or make the Software available or accessible to third parties in any other manner; (c) except as
provided in section 5, transfer assign or sublicense right to any other person or entity, or (d) remove any proprietary notice, labels, or marks on the
Software, Products, and containers.
3. Proprietary Rights.
All rights, title, interest, and all copyrights to the Software and any copy made thereof by you and to any Product remain with Fortinet. You
acknowledge that no title to the intellectual property in the Software or other Products is transferred to you and you will not acquire any rights to the
Software or other Products except for the specific license as expressly set forth in section 1 (“License Grant”) above.
4. Term and Termination.
Except for evaluation and beta licenses or other licenses where the term of the license is limited per the evaluation/beta or other agreement or in the
ordering documents, the term of the license is for the duration of Fortinet's copyright in the Software. Fortinet may terminate this Agreement, and the
licenses and other rights herein, immediately without notice if you breach or fail to comply with any of the terms and conditions of this Agreement. You
agree that, upon such termination, you will cease using the Software and any Product and either destroy all copies of the Fortinet documentation or
return all materials to Fortinet. The provisions of this Agreement, other than the license granted in section 1 ("License Grant"), shall survive termination.
5. Transfer.
If you are a Fortinet contracted and authorized reseller or distributor of Products, you may transfer (not rent or lease unless specifically agreed to in
writing by Fortinet) the Software to one end user on a permanent basis, provided that: (i) you ensure that your customer and the end user receives
a copy of this Agreement, is bound by its terms and conditions, and, by selling the Product or Software, you hereby agree to enforce the terms in
this Agreement against such end user, (ii) you at all times comply with all applicable United States export control laws and regulations, and (iii) you
agree to refund any fees paid to you by an end user who purchased Product(s) from you but does not agree to the terms contained in this Agreement
and therefore wishes to return the Product(s) as provided for in this Agreement. Further, if you are a non-authorized reseller of Products, you are
not authorized to sell Product(s) or Software, but, regardless, by selling Product(s) or Software, you hereby agree you are bound by the restrictions
