SOFTWARE LICENSE AGREEMENT 

This is a legal agreement between You, the user or installer
("You"), and HID Global Corporation ("HID").
This agreement governs all software that is distributed with HID's or
HID brands' (for example, OMNIKEY brand or Smart ID brand or Fargo) 
products (the "Product"), and any and all updates and
downloads You subsequently access and install, including associated
media, documentation, drivers, online or electronic information provided
by HID related to the Product (collectively, the
"Software"). By opening or breaking the seal on the product
package, installing or downloading the Software, or using the Software
that has been preloaded onto or is embedded in the HID Product, You
agree to be bound by the terms of this agreement. If You do not agree to
these terms, prior to Your use, installation or downloading of the
Software, return all Software items (disks, written materials, and
packaging) and delete any downloaded, preloaded, or embedded Software.
If it is not practical to delete preloaded or embedded Software, You
must also return the Product.

1.  Software License.
The Software is licensed for use only in conjunction with HID reader
products. Use of the Software in conjunction with non-HID reader
products is not licensed hereunder.
    (a) End Users:  Subject to the terms of this Agreement, HID grants to
        You a nonexclusive, nontransferable, worldwide, fully paid-up
        license under HID's and its supplier's copyrights to access,
        install the Software onto any computer or networked computer and
        use the Software solely to configure, program and use the Product
        for Your internal use.
    (b) Authorized Installers: Subject to the terms of this Agreement,
        HID grants to You a nonexclusive, nontransferable, worldwide,
        fully paid-up license under HID's and its supplier's copyrights to:
        i) install the Software onto any computer or networked computer
           solely for purposes of configuring the Products or associated
           physical access systems of Your end users;
       ii) distribute the Software, to Your end users of the Products, 
           but only under a license agreement with terms at least as 
           restrictive as those contained herein; and
      iii) reproduce and distribute the complete unmodified end-user
           documentation which may accompany the Software to Your end
           users of the Products, but only in association with
           distributions of the Software or Products for which the
           Software is intended.
    (c) General Notice for Third Party Technologies. The Software may
        include or be bundled with other software programs licensed under
        different terms and/or licensed by a vendor other than HID. Use
        of any software programs accompanied by a separate license
        agreement is governed by that separate license agreement. Any
        third party software that may be provided with the Software is
        included for use at Your option. HID is not responsible for any
        third party's software and shall have no liability for Your use
        of third party software.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, all 
        components of the Software are subject to the Disclaimer of 
        Warranty and Limitation of Liability stated below.

2.  Restrictions.
    HID and its suppliers reserve all rights not  expressly granted to
    You under this Agreement. You may not modify or alter the Software
    in any way. You may not disassemble, decompile or reverse engineer
    the Software in order to obtain the source code, which is a trade
    secret of HID and/or its suppliers. Except as expressly permitted,
    You shall not otherwise assign, sublicense, lease, or in any other
    way transfer or disclose Software to any third party. You may 
    transfer the Software and all accompanying materials on a 
    permanent basis if You retain no copies and the recipient agrees
    to the terms of this agreement.

3.  Ownership.
    The Software is licensed, not sold. No title to or ownership in
    the Software is transferred to You. You acknowledge and agree
    that HID and its suppliers own and retain all right, title and
    interest in the Software and ownership of all intellectual
    property rights in the Software, including any adaptations or
    copies. The Software is protected by United States and European
    copyright laws and international provisions. You agree not to
    attempt in any way to obliterate or destroy the legal notices
    appearing on or in any copy of the Software. You shall not use
    HID's name in any publications, advertisements, or other
    announcements without HID's prior written consent. You do not
    obtain any rights under this Agreement to use any HID
    trademarks or logos.

4.  Term.
    This license is effective until terminated. You may terminate
    it by destroying the Software and accompanying documentation
    and all copies thereof. This license will also terminate if
    You fail to comply with any term or provision of this
    Agreement or upon HID's written notice of termination for
    Your breach. You agree upon such termination to destroy the
    Software and accompanying documentation and all copies thereof.

5.  Limited Warranty.
    In the absence of any optional warranty or continuing
    provisions extended by a formal written agreement, HID warrants
    its Software in accordance with the following:
    (a) Limited Warranty.
        HID warrants solely on its behalf and for Your benefit alone,
        that the media on which the Software is recorded shall be
        free from defects in materials and workmanship for a period
        of ninety (90) days from Your receipt of the Software (the
        "Warranty Period"). Except as expressly provided herein,
        neither HID nor its suppliers warrant the performance or
        results of the Software, that the Software will meet Your
        requirements, or that the Software will run uninterrupted
        or error free. 

    (b) Exclusive Remedy.
        HID's entire liability and Your exclusive remedy shall be the
        replacement of any media not meeting the limited warranty set
        forth above, provided it is returned to HID as set forth
        below. Warranty claims must be received by HID within the
        Warranty Period. In the event of a warranty claim, You shall
        be responsible for the removal of the defective Software,
        shipping charges for return to HID, and installation of its
        replacement. Replaced Software, or any part thereof, shall
        become the property of HID and shall be returned to HID at
        Your expense.
    (c) Other Jurisdictions.
        In some jurisdictions express warranties or limited warranties,
        as laid out in sec. 5 "LIMITED WARRANTY", are known
        as "additional guarantees." For the avoidance of
        doubt, the Limited Warranty according to sec. 5 "LIMITED
        WARRANTY" entitle You to specific rights, regardless of
        and without excluding or limiting Your rights under the
        provisions of any applicable statutory law.

6.  WARRANTY DISCLAIMER.
    (a) WARRANTY DISCLAIMER. THE EXPRESS WARRANTIES SET FORTH IN THIS
        AGREEMENT ARE IN LIEU OF ALL OTHER WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR
        IMPLIED, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY WARRANTIES OF
        MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE AND
        NON-INFRINGEMENT, AND TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE
        LAW ALL SUCH OTHER WARRANTIES ARE HEREBY DISCLAIMED AND
        EXCLUDED BY HID AND ITS SUPPLIERS. Some jurisdictions do not
        allow certain disclaimers and limitations of warranties, so
        portions of the above limitations may not apply to You. This
        limited warranty gives You specific rights and You may also
        have other rights which vary from state to state.
    (b) No limitation of statutory rights.  In some jurisdictions the
        concept of warranty disclaimers does not exist. For the
        avoidance of doubt, we provide notice that these disclaimers
        may not apply to You. 

7.  LIMITATION OF LIABILITY.
    IN NO EVENT SHALL HID OR ITS EMPLOYEES OR SUPPLIERS BE LIABLE TO
    YOU FOR ANY DAMAGES, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY SPECIAL,
    INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, PUNITIVE OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, ARISING
    OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH THE USE OR PERFORMANCE OF THE
    SOFTWARE, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION, LOSS OF PROFITS, BUSINESS,
    DATA, GOODWILL, OR ANTICIPATED SAVINGS, EVEN IF ADVISED OF THE
    POSSIBILITY OF THOSE DAMAGES. IN NO EVENT WILL HID'S AGGREGATE
    LIABILITY FOR DIRECT DAMAGES TO PROPERTY OR PERSON (WHETHER IN
    ONE INSTANCE OR A SERIES OF INSTANCES) EXCEED THE AMOUNT PAID BY
    YOU FOR THE SOFTWARE OUT OF WHICH SUCH CLAIM AROSE. In those
    jurisdictions that do not allow the exclusion or limitation of
    damages, HID's liability shall be limited or excluded to the
    maximum extent allowed within those jurisdictions.

8.  U.S. Government Restricted Rights.  The Software and documentation
    are "commercial items" as that term is defined at 48
    C.F.R. 2.101, consisting of "commercial computer software"
    and "commercial computer software documentation" as such
    terms are used in 48 C.F.R. 12.212.  Consistent with 48 C.F.R.
    12.212 and 48 C.F.R. 227.7202-1 through 227.7202-4, all U.S.
    Government end users acquire the software and documentation with
    only those rights set forth herein. Supplier is HID Global
    Corporation, 15370 Barranca Parkway, Irvine, California 92618.

9.  Export.
    You agree that You do not intend to and will not, directly or
    indirectly, export or transmit the Software, Product, or related
    documentation and technical data to any country to which such
    export or transmission is restricted by any applicable U.S.,
    European or other applicable regulation or statue. You further
    agree that You are solely responsible for obtaining any required
    license for Your export of the Software or Product.

10. Indemnification.
    You shall defend, indemnify, and hold HID, its officers, directors
    and employees, harmless from and against any and all claims,
    damages, losses, costs or other expenses (including reasonable
    attorneys' fees) that arise directly or indirectly out of Your
    willful misconduct or unauthorized use of the Software.

11. Legal Effect.
    This agreement describes certain legal rights. You may have other
    rights under the laws of Your state or country. You may also have
    rights with respect to the party from whom You acquired the
    software. This agreement does not change Your rights under the
    laws of Your state or country if the laws of Your state or country
    do not permit it to do so.

12. Miscellaneous. 
    (a) Severability.
        If any provision of this Agreement is invalid or unenforceable
        under applicable law, then it shall be, to that extent, deemed
        omitted and the remaining provisions will continue in full force
        and effect.
    (b) Governing Law.
        The validity and performance of this Agreement shall be governed
        by California law (without reference to choice of law
        principles), and applicable federal law. The United Nations
        Convention on Contracts for the International Sales of Goods
        shall not apply.
    (c) Disputes.
        In the event of any legal action or proceeding relating to this
        Agreement, the prevailing party shall be entitled to recover its
        attorneys' fees in addition to any other relief granted. HID
        agrees and You agree to waive, to the maximum extent permitted
        by applicable law, any right to a jury trial with respect to the
        Software or this agreement. Because this waiver may not be
        effective in all jurisdictions, this waiver may not apply to You.
    (d) Assignment.
        This agreement is binding on successors and assigns.
    (e) Waiver.
        No term or provision hereof shall be deemed waived and no breach
        consented to or excused, unless such waiver, consent or excuse
        shall be in writing and signed by the Party claimed to have
        waived or consented
    (f) Entire Agreement; Modification.
        This Agreement sets forth the entire understanding and agreement
        between You and HID and may be amended only in a writing signed
        by both parties.
