Mentor Graphics’ real-time operating systems or other ESD Software, except those explicitly

granted in this section, into your products without first signing a separate agreement with

Mentor Graphics for such purpose.

3. BETA CODE.

3.1 Portions or all of certain Software may contain code for experimental testing and evaluation

(“Beta Code”), which may not be used without Mentor Graphics’ explicit authorization. Upon

Mentor Graphics’ authorization, Mentor Graphics grants to you a temporary, nontransferable,

nonexclusive license for experimental use to test and evaluate the Beta Code without charge

for a limited period of time specified by Mentor Graphics. This grant and your use of the Beta

Code shall not be construed as marketing or offering to sell a license to the Beta Code, which

Mentor Graphics may chose not to release commercially in any form.

3.2 If Mentor Graphics authorizes you to use the Beta Code, you agree to evaluate and test the

Beta Code under normal conditions as directed by Mentor Graphics. You will contact Mentor

Graphics periodically during your use of the Beta Code to discuss any malfunctions or

suggested improvements. Upon completion of your evaluation and testing, you will send to

Mentor Graphics a written evaluation of the Beta Code, including its strengths, weaknesses and

recommended improvements.

3.3 You agree that any written evaluations and all inventions, product improvements,

modifications or developments that Mentor Graphics conceives or makes during or subsequent

to this Agreement, including those based partly or wholly on your feedback, will be the exclusive

property of Mentor Graphics. Mentor Graphics will have exclusive rights, title and interest in all

such property. The provisions of this subsection shall survive termination or expiration of this

Agreement.

4. RESTRICTIONS ON USE. You may copy Software only as reasonably necessary to support

the authorized use. Each copy must include all notices and legends embedded in Software and

affixed to its medium and container as received from Mentor Graphics. All copies shall remain

the property of Mentor Graphics or its licensors. You shall maintain a record of the number and

primary location of all copies of Software, including copies merged with other software, and

shall make those records available to Mentor Graphics upon request. You shall not make

Software available in any form to any person other than your employer's employees and

contractors, excluding Mentor Graphics' competitors, whose job performance requires access.

You shall take appropriate action to protect the confidentiality of Software and ensure that any

person permitted access to Software does not disclose it or use it except as permitted by this

Agreement. Except as otherwise permitted for purposes of interoperability as specified by the

European Union Software Directive or local law, you shall not reverse-assemble, reverse-

compile, reverse-engineer or in any way derive from Software any source code. You may not

sublicense, assign or otherwise transfer Software, this Agreement or the rights under it without
