    ============================================

PLEASE READ THIS DOCUMENT CAREFULLY.  BY INSTALLING THE SOFTWARE, 
YOU ARE AGREEING TO BECOME BOUND BY THE TERMS OF THIS AGREEMENT.  
IF YOU DO NOT AGREE TO THE TERMS OF THE AGREEMENT, PLEASE DO NOT

This is a legal agreement between you and Creative Technology Ltd. 
and its subsidiaries ("Creative").  This Agreement states the 
terms and conditions upon which Creative offers to license the 
software in the disk package together with all related 
documentation and accompanying items including, but not limited 
to, the executable programs, drivers, libraries and data files 
associated with such programs (collectively, the "Software").


LICENSE

1.	Grant of License.
	The Software is licensed, not sold, to you for use only 
	under the terms of this Agreement.  You own the disk or 
	other media on which the Software is originally or 
	subsequently recorded or fixed; but, as between you and 
	Creative (and, to the extent applicable, its licensors), 
	Creative retains all title to and ownership of the 
	Software and reserves all rights not expressly granted 
	to you.

2.	For Use on a Single Computer.
	The Software may be used by you only on a single computer 
	with a single CPU.  You may transfer the machine-readable 
	portion of the Software from one computer to another 
	computer, provided that 
	(a) the Software (including any portion or copy thereof) 
	     is erased from the first computer, and 
	(b) there is no possibility that the Software will be used 
	     on more than one computer at a time.

3.	Stand-Alone Basis.
	You may use the Software only on a stand-alone basis, such 
	that the Software and the functions it provides are 
	accessible only to persons who are physically present at 
	the location of the computer on which the Software is 
	loaded.  You may not allow the Software or its functions 
	to be accessed remotely, or transmit all or any portion of 
	the Software through any network or communication line.

4.	One Archival Copy.
	You may make one (1) archival copy of the machine-readable 
	portion of the Software for backup purposes only in support
	of your use of the Software on a single computer, provided 
	that you reproduce on the copy all copyright and other 
	proprietary rights notices included on the originals of the 
	Software.

5.	No Merger or Integration.
	You may not merge any portion of the Software into, or 
	integrate any portion of the Software with, any other 
	program, except to the extent expressly permitted by the 
	laws of the jurisdiction where you are located.  Any portion 
	of the Software merged into or integrated with another 
	program, if any, will continue to be subject to the terms 
	and conditions of this Agreement, and you must reproduce on
	the merged or integrated portion all copyright and other 
	proprietary rights notices included on the originals of the 
	Software.

6.	Network Version.
	If you have purchased a "network" version of the Software, 
	this Agreement applies to the installation of the Software 
	on a single "file server".  It may not be copied onto 
	multiple systems.  Each "node" connected to the "file server" 
	must also have its own license of a "node copy" of the 
	Software, which becomes a license only for that specific 
	"node".
        
7.	Transfer of License.
	You may transfer your license of the Software, provided that 
	(a) you transfer all portions of the Software or copies 
	     thereof, 
	(b) you do not retain any portion of the Software or any 
	     copy thereof, and,
	(c) the transferee reads and agrees to be bound by the terms 
	     and conditions of this Agreement.

8.	Limitations on Using, Copying, and Modifying the Software.
	Except to the extent expressly permitted by this Agreement or 
	by the laws of the jurisdiction where you acquired the 
	Software, you may not use, copy or modify the Software.  Nor 
	may you sub-license any of your rights under this Agreement.

9.	Decompiling, Disassembling, or Reverse Engineering.
	You acknowledge that the Software contains trade secrets and 
	other proprietary information of Creative and its licensors.  
	Except to the extent expressly permitted by this Agreement or 
	by the laws of the jurisdiction where you are located, you 
	may not decompile, disassemble or otherwise reverse engineer 
	the Software, or engage in any other activities to obtain 
	underlying information that is not visible to the user in 
	connection with normal use of the Software.  In any event, 
	you will notify Creative of any information derived from 
	reverse engineering or such other activities, and the results 
	thereof will constitute the confidential information of 
	Creative that may be used only in connection with the 
	Software.


TERMINATION

The license granted to you is effective until terminated.  You may 
terminate it at any time by returning the Software (including any 
portions or copies thereof) to Creative.  The license will also 
terminate automatically without any notice from Creative if you fail 
to comply with any term or condition of this Agreement.  You agree 
upon such termination to return the Software (including any portions 
or copies thereof) to Creative.  Upon termination, Creative may also 
enforce any rights provided by law.  The provisions of this 
Agreement that protect the proprietary rights of Creative will 
continue in force after termination.


LIMITED WARRANTY

Creative warrants, as the sole warranty, that the disks on which the
Software is furnished will be free of defects, as set forth in the 
Warranty Card or printed manual included with the Software.  No 
distributor, dealer or any other entity or person is authorized to 
expand or alter this warranty or any other provisions of this 
Agreement.  Any representation, other than the warranties set forth 
in this Agreement, will not bind Creative.  

Creative does not warrant that the functions contained in the 
Software will meet your requirements or that the operation of the 
Software will be uninterrupted or error-free.  EXCEPT AS 
STATED ABOVE IN THIS AGREEMENT, THE SOFTWARE IS PROVIDED 
AS-IS WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESS OR 
IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, ANY IMPLIED 
WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR 
PURPOSE.

You assume full responsibility for the selection of the Software to 
achieve your intended results, and for the installation, use and 
results obtained from the Software.  You also assume the entire 
risk as it applies to the quality and performance of the Software.  
Should the Software prove defective, you (and not Creative, or its 
distributors or dealers) assume the entire cost of all necessary 
servicing, repair or correction.

This warranty gives you specific legal rights, and you may also have 
other rights which vary from country/state to country/state.  Some 
countries/states do not allow the exclusion of implied warranties, 
so the above exclusion may not apply to you.  Creative disclaims all 
warranties of any kind if the Software was customized, repackaged or 
altered in any way by any third party other than Creative.


LIMITATION OF REMEDIES AND DAMAGES

THE ONLY REMEDY FOR BREACH OF WARRANTY WILL BE THAT SET 
FORTH IN THE WARRANTY CARD OR PRINTED MANUAL INCLUDED 
WITH THE SOFTWARE.  IN NO EVENT WILL CREATIVE OR ITS
LICENSORS BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL
OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES OR FOR ANY LOST PROFITS, LOST 
SAVINGS, LOST REVENUES OR LOST DATA ARISING FROM OR 
RELATING TO THE SOFTWARE OR THIS AGREEMENT, EVEN IF 
CREATIVE OR ITS LICENSORS HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF THE
POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.  IN NO EVENT WILL CREATIVE'S 
LIABILITY OR DAMAGES TO YOU OR ANY OTHER PERSON EVER
EXCEED THE AMOUNT PAID BY YOU TO USE THE SOFTWARE, 
REGARDLESS OF THE FORM OF THE CLAIM. 

Some countries/states do not allow the limitation or exclusion of 
liability for incidental or consequential damages, so the above 
limitation or exclusion may not apply to you.  


PRODUCT RETURNS

IF YOU MUST SHIP THE SOFTWARE TO CREATIVE OR AN AUTHORIZED
CREATIVE DISTRIBUTOR OR DEALER, YOU MUST PREPAY SHIPPING 
AND EITHER INSURE THE SOFTWARE OR ASSUME ALL RISK OF LOSS 
OR DAMAGE IN TRANSIT.


U.S. GOVERNMENT RESTRICTED RIGHTS

subject to restrictions as set forth in subdivision (b)(3)(ii) of 
the Rights in Technical Data and Computer Software Clause at

outside of the United States, you will comply with the applicable

GENERAL

This Agreement is binding on you as well as your employees, 
employers, contractors and agents, and on any successors and 
assignees.  Neither the Software nor any information derived 
therefrom may be exported except in accordance with the laws of 
the U.S. or other applicable provisions.  This Agreement is

extent federal law governs copyrights and federally registered 
trademarks). This Agreement is the entire agreement between us 
and supersedes any other understandings or agreements, including, 
but not limited to, advertising, with respect to the Software.  

If any provision of this Agreement is deemed invalid or 
unenforceable by any country or government agency having 
jurisdiction, that particular provision will be deemed modified 
to the extent necessary to make the provision valid and 
enforceable, and the remaining provisions will remain in full 
force and effect.

SPECIAL PROVISIONS APPLICABLE TO 
THE EUROPEAN UNION

If you acquired the Software in the European Union (EU), the 
following provisions also apply to you. If there is any 
inconsistency between the terms of the Software License Agreement 
set out above and the following provisions, the following 
provisions shall take precedence:

Decompilation:
You agree not for any purpose to transmit the Software or display 
the Software’s object code on any computer screen or to make any 
hard copy memory dumps of the Software’s object code. If you 
believe you require information related to the interoperability 
of the Software with other programs, you shall not decompile or 
disassemble the Software to obtain such information, and you agree 
to request such information from Creative at the address listed 
below. Upon receiving such a request, Creative shall determine 
whether you require such information for a legitimate purpose and, 
if so, Creative will provide such information to you within a 
reasonable time and on reasonable conditions.

Limited Warranty:
EXCEPT AS STATED ABOVE IN THIS AGREEMENT, AND AS 
PROVIDED BELOW UNDER THE HEADING "STATUTORY RIGHTS", 
THE SOFTWARE IS PROVIDED AS-IS WITHOUT WARRANTY OF 
ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT 
NOT LIMITED TO, ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS 
OF MERCHANTABILITY, QUALITY AND FITNESS FOR A 
PARTICULAR PURPOSE.

Limitation of Remedy and Damages:
THE LIMITATIONS OF REMEDIES AND DAMAGES IN THE 
SOFTWARE LICENSE AGREEMENT SHALL NOT APPLY TO PERSONAL 
INJURY (INCLUDING DEATH) TO ANY PERSON CAUSED BY 
CREATIVE’S NEGLIGENCE AND ARE SUBJECT TO THE PROVISION 
SET OUT BELOW UNDER THE HEADING "STATUTORY RIGHTS".

Statutory rights:
Irish law provides that certain conditions and warranties may be 
implied in contracts for the sale of goods and in contracts for 
the supply of services. Such conditions and warranties are hereby 
excluded, to the extent such exclusion, in the context of this 
transaction, is lawful under Irish law. Conversely, such 
conditions and warranties, insofar as they may not be lawfully 
excluded, shall apply. Accordingly nothing in this Agreement 
shall prejudice any rights that you may enjoy by virtue of 
Sections 12, 13, 14 or 15 of the Irish Sale of Goods Act 1893 
(as amended).

General:
This Agreement is governed by the laws of the Republic of Ireland. 
The local language version of this agreement shall apply to 
Software acquired in the EU. This Agreement is the entire 
agreement between us and you agree that Creative will not have 
any liability for any untrue statement or representation made by 
it, its agents or anyone else (whether innocently or negligently) 
upon which you relied upon entering this Agreement, unless such 
untrue statement or representation was made fraudulently.
