DREAMCALC SOFTWARE LICENSE AGREEMENT

The following License Terms govern your use of the accompanying DreamCalc Software (the
"Software"). Carefully read the following legal agreement (the "Agreement"), for the license of
the Software by Big Angry Dog Ltd. By installing or using the Software, you, either as an
individual or a legal entity, agree to be bound by and become a party to the Agreement. If you do
not agree to all the terms of the Agreement, you should not install or use the Software.

INDIVIDUAL USE OF THE SOFTWARE
Subject to the terms of this Agreement, Big Angry Dog Ltd grants you, either as a private
individual or a not-for-profit academic institute, the right to install and use the Software free
of charge on any device that is primarily used by you for non-commercial activities. The Software
may, however, remind you that it is being used in a "free mode" and/or limit the use of a subset
of features until a non-transferable "upgrade option" is purchased. You may make copies of the
Software installation file for backup purposes. Furthermore, you agree that you are responsible
for ensuring that your use of the Software complies with all relevant laws under which it is
operated.

COMMERCIAL USE OF THE SOFTWARE
Subject to the terms of this Agreement, Big Angry Dog Ltd grants you, as a commercial
organisation, the right to use the Software for purposes of evaluation and test only. You are,
however, required to license the Software separately in order to deploy and use it in a
commercial or operational context.

REDISTRIBUTION
You may redistribute the Software to prospective users, provided the Software is distributed in
its original unmodified set-up application, and all such distributed copies contain the original
proprietary notices. You may not, however, charge for, re-sell, lease or sub-license the
Software. You may not create derivative works based upon, or otherwise repackage, translate,
adapt, modify, or integrate any other computer programs with, the Software.

AUTHORIZED PARTNERS
Big Angry Dog Ltd may allow the use of the Software in conjunction with an authorized partner
organization (an "Authorized Partner"). For information purposes, Authorized Partners include,
but are not restricted to, educational institutions where students study at home using their own
computers. If you have legitimately obtained a copy of the Software through your association with
an Authorized Partner, and subject to the terms of this Agreement, Big Angry Dog Ltd additionally
grants you the right to install and use the Software, without fee, for the purposes related to
your Authorized Partner (i.e. to study). This use of the Software is permitted for a limited
period of time only (the "Permitted Time"), as agreed by Big Angry Dog Ltd with the Authorized
Partner. If you wish to continue using the Software after the expiry of the Permitted Time, you
must purchase a User License. If you do not wish to continue using the Software, you should
uninstall it. Upon expiry of the Permitted Time, the Software will revert to Evaluation Mode in
order to notify you that the Permitted Time has expired. Failure of the Software to exhibit the
Evaluation Mode will not negate your obligation to uninstall the Software or to purchase a User
Licence.

the foregoing restriction is expressly prohibited by applicable law. You are expressly prohibited
from circumventing any upgrade or "paid-for" feature restrictions in the Software. You may not

Big Angry Dog Ltd reserves the right to disable any keys that were provided to you in the event
of disclosure. You acknowledge and agree that you are responsible for keeping your own record of
the license keys granted to you, and that Big Angry Dog Ltd has no obligation to provide
additional copies of license keys in the future in the event of loss.
