III. Terms and Conditions

Definitions

"Software" is Vyapin's proprietary software product for which Licensee has purchased the License from Vyapin and/or an authorized Vyapin reseller under the terms and conditions of the applicable software license agreement.

"Software Update" means a new updated version of the licensed software.

Vyapin may provide, from time to time, software product updates and upgrade versions of the licensed Vyapin software product. Minor version updates include both minor feature updates (changes in the second digit of the version number e.g., 3.0 to 3.2) AND bug fix updates (changes in the third digit of the version number e.g., 3.2.1 to 3.2.2). Major version upgrades include new feature additions and enhancements to existing features. Major version releases are made with changes to the first digit of the version number e.g., 3.0 to 4.0.
A "Software Updates Subscription" entitles the licensee to receive new versions of the licensed software, both minor and major version releases, released during the term of subscription.
The term of subscription shall be for twelve months from the date of purchase of the subscription. The term of a subscription always starts on the date of purchase of the subscription.
Licensee may only purchase Subscription at the time of purchase of the Software License, or within a grace period of 30 days from the date of purchase of the Software License or at the time of renewal of the subscription. Licensee will not be eligible to purchase subscription for the licensed software at any other time.
Prior to expiry of the subscription, Vyapin will notify licensee on the subscription coming up for renewal. Licensee may renew the subscription for a further period of twelve months within 30 days upon expiry of the subscription term. The subscription renewal pricing will be based on the prevailing software list price.
Licensee will not receive software updates, if the Licensee’s subscription has expired. Once the software subscription expires, Licensee will not be eligible to receive any software updates released during the subscription term.
Licensee's existing Software license, as well as any related warranties, conditions, disclaimers and limitations of liability under the applicable Software License Agreement of the licensed software, will extend to the Software Updates provided under the terms and conditions of the Software Updates Subscription.
Licensee may use each Software Update release solely to replace a previous version of the licensed Software only.
