to use the Licensor's Intellectual Property Rights as provided
for in this Agreement will cease upon the termination of this
Agreement or as otherwise provided for in this clause 13.

or licence upon the Licensee to use, exploit or otherwise utilise
any rights relating to the Licensor's Intellectual Property
Rights other than in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.
13.3 The Licensee agrees not to represent in any way that it has any
title, right or interest in the ownership of the Licensor's

application to register any such Intellectual Property Rights
belonging to the Licensor at the cost of the Licensor.
13.4 The Licensee agrees with the Licensor that it will notify the
Licensor in writing as soon as practicable of any infringement,
suspected infringement or alleged infringement relating to the
Licensor's Intellectual Property Rights which comes to its

knowledge of any infringement, suspected infringement or alleged
infringement if such infringement would have come to the
Licensee's knowledge but for any negligence or wilful misconduct
on the part of the Licensee.
13.5 In the event that proceedings are brought or threatened by a
third party against the Licensee or the Licensor, alleging that
the Licensee's use of the Product Materials constitutes an
infringement of a third party's Intellectual Property Rights, the

Licensee shall provide all necessary co-operation, information
and assistance to the Licensor in the conduct of the defence of
such proceedings.

the Licensor acting entirely at its own discretion believes that
there is a reasonable likelihood that infringement may currently
exist or is likely to occur, the Licensee agrees with the
Licensor that it will permit the Licensor, acting entirely in the
Licensor's discretion to;

infringing part of the Product Materials, at the Licensor's expense
in order to avoid the infringement or potential infringement; or
13.6.2 procure for the Licensee the authority to continue with the use and
possession of the infringing or potentially infringing part of the

entitled to terminate the Licence and this Agreement immediately on
written notice to the Licensee at which point the Licensee shall
destroy all copies of the Product Materials within its possession and
provide a written certificate from one of the Licensee's directors to
the Licensor that such copies have been destroyed provided that the
Licensor shall be entitled to enter upon the Licensee's premises to
repossess any copies of the Product Materials in the possession,
custody or control of the Licensee not returned or destroyed as
provided for above.

to indemnify the Licensee against any damages, costs and losses
incurred by the Licensee whether direct or consequential (including
but without limitation any economic loss or other loss of turnover,
profits, business or goodwill) in connection with any proceedings
bought by a third party against the Licensee alleging that the
Licensee's use of the Product Materials constitutes an infringement
of that third party's Intellectual Property Rights.
13.9 The Licensee shall indemnify the Licensor against any loss, costs,
expenses, demands or liability, whether direct or indirect, arising
out of a claim by a third party pursuant to clause 13.5 where:

specifically provided for by this Agreement or authorised by the
Licensor;
c) modification or alteration of the Product Materials by the
Licensee or any third party on behalf of the Licensee; and
d) any transaction entered into by the Licensee relating to the
Product Materials without the Licensor's prior consent in writing
which is not otherwise authorised by the terms of this Agreement;
or
13.9.2 the ability of the Licensor to defend the claim has been prejudiced
by the failure of the Licensee to comply with any requirements of
clauses 13.4, 13.5 or 13.6.
13.10 The Licensee acknowledges that the Licensor is in no way liable to
the Licensee in respect of any liability arising from the Licensee's

express or implied, including but not limited to any implied

or ability to achieve a particular result;
14.1.2 makes no warranty that the Software is error free or that use of
the Software will be uninterrupted and the Licensee acknowledges
and agrees that the existence of such errors shall not constitute a
breach of this Agreement; and
14.1.3 does not give any warranty in respect of the Third Party Software.
14.2 The Licensee agrees that its sole remedy in respect of any
non-conformance with any warranty that can not be excluded pursuant

(either by itself or through a third party) and if, in the Licensor's
reasonable opinion, it is unable to remedy such non-conformance, the
Licensor shall be entitled to terminate the Licence and this
Agreement immediately on written notice to the Licensee at which
point the Licensee shall destroy all copies of the Product Materials
within its possession and provide a written certificate from one of
the Licensee's directors to the Licensor that such copies have been
destroyed provided that the Licensor shall be entitled to enter upon
the Licensee's premises to repossess any copies of the Product
Materials in the possession, custody or control of the Licensee not
returned or destroyed as provided for above.

and other expenses of any nature whatsoever incurred or suffered
by the second party, or by any other third party, whether direct
or consequential (including but without limitation any economic
loss or other loss of turnover, profits, business or goodwill)
arising out of any dispute or contractual, tortuous or other
claims or proceedings bought by the second party or which are
alternatively bought against the second party as a result of the
second party's breach of this Agreement.
15.2 Clause 15.1 shall not exclude any liability of the first party to
the second party which arises from:
15.2.1 wilful misconduct or gross negligence on the part of the first
party;
15.2.2 where the Licensee is the first party, any act or omission by any
persons to whom the Licensee is permitted to disclose Information
(as defined in clause 16.1) as set out in this Agreement, which, if

the Licensee's obligations under this Agreement,
and in respect of which the first party will indemnify the second party.
15.3 In the event that any limitation or provision contained in this
Agreement is held to be invalid or unenforceable for any reason and

Property Rights.

for the International Sale of Goods (1980) and the Sale of Goods
(United Nations Convention) Act 1994 will not apply to this

confidential, including, without limitation, information
contained or embodied in the Product Materials, the Specification

to the Licensee's own confidential information of a like nature
and in any event in accordance with best current commercial
security practices, provided that, this clause shall not extend
to any information which was rightfully in the possession of the
Licensee prior to the commencement of this Agreement or which is

court order or valid government department or agency legal
requirement, provided that the Licensee must:

the Licensor of that fact and identify the Information required to
be so disclosed so that if practicable in the circumstances a
protective order or other appropriate remedy may be sought; and
b) disclose only the minimum Information required to comply with the
applicable law or order.
16.3 The Licensee undertakes to ensure that persons and bodies referred to
in clause 16.2 are made aware before the disclosure of any part of
the Information that the same is confidential and that they owe a
duty of confidence to the Licensor.
16.4 The Licensee shall promptly notify the Licensor if it becomes aware
of any breach of confidence by any person to whom the Licensee has

breach of confidence.

force and effect notwithstanding any termination of the Licence or

30. Language
30.1 This Agreement is made only in the English language. If there is

Agreement.
31.3 Where there is a dispute, the aggrieved party shall notify the other
party in writing of the nature of the dispute, with as much detail as
possible about the deficient performance of the other party. A
representative from senior management of each of the parties
("representatives") shall meet in person or communicate by telephone
within 5 business days of the date of the written notification in

jurisdiction of the courts of New Zealand for the purposes of hearing
and determining any dispute arising out of this Agreement.
31.10 Each party recognises that the other party's business relies upon the
protection of its Intellectual Property Rights and that in the event
of a breach of Intellectual Property Rights, the other party will be
caused irreparable damage and such other party may therefore be
entitled to injunctive or other equitable relief in order to prevent
a breach or threatened breach of its Intellectual Property Rights.
31.11 Notwithstanding clause 31.1 to 31.7 and clause 31.9, the parties
agree that:

Property Rights the Licensor shall have the right to sue for breach
of its Intellectual Property Rights (whether in connection with
this Agreement or otherwise) in any country where it believes that
infringement or a breach or potential infringement or breach of
this Agreement relating to its Intellectual Property Rights is or
is likely to take place.
SCHEDULE 1
Specification and Functionality
Goal
Provide a framework for constructing, displaying, and interacting with
user interfaces in a C++ application.
Overview
Interfaces are defined in Rocket Markup Language (RML), a format based on
HTML, and Rocket Cascading Style Sheets (RCSS), a format based on CSS. The
RML specifies the content of the interfaces, the RCSS specifies how the
content will be displayed.
Based on the rules specified in the RCSS, each document (which is roughly
equivalent to a webpage in web terminology, or a window in desktop
terminology) has its child elements automatically laid out. The layout
engine will detect when changes occur to the content or styling and
re-layout when necessary.
Elements have event hooks which can be used to send events back to the
application.
Templates for documents can be created from an RML file. New documents can
read from the template and add their own content.
Dynamic data can be handled by a datagrid or a dataselect, by fetching
their contents from a data source and automatically respond to any changes
in the data.
libRocket's functionality can be extended by creating custom decorators to
render elements in a specific way, by creating a custom element, by taking
advantage of hooks in the XML parser, or by setting custom logging, file,
render and system handlers.
A visual run-time debugger is provided with libRocket.
