INTERNAL RESEARCH PURPOSES ONLY
FOR CHIRPLAB FOR NOT-FOR-PROFIT ORGANIZATIONS

The California Institute of Technology (CIT) will provide you, a not-for-profit institution (LICENSEE), with CHIRPLAB version 1.0. CHIRPLAB is available to LICENSEE on the following terms:

1. Definitions:
(a) CHIRPLAB is defined as the source code that will allow the execution of the multiscale chirplet transform and network flow algorithms to solve optimization problems in the chirplet graph.
(b) Source Code is defined as code written in human-readable format or in a high-level program language.

2. CIT agrees to grant LICENSEE a nonexclusive, non-transferable, royalty-free license, under the copyright rights and any applicable patent rights, to use CHIRPLAB for internal research purposes only. This license specifically excludes the right to sublicense CHIRPLAB in any form, and it also excludes the right to use CHIRPLAB for any commercial or for-profit purpose. LICENSEE hereby certifies that it is a not-for-profit entity.

3. LICENSEE may incorporate CHIRPLAB with other source code developed by LICENSEE (Incorporated Work) for the sole purpose of using CHIRPLAB for research internal to LICENSEE and not for any other redistribution. LICENSEE may not distribute any Incorporated Work outside of LICENSEE, and specifically LICENSEE may not provide CHIRPLAB or any Incorporated Work under an open source license such as the Gnu Public License (www.gpl.org). If the creation of an Incorporated Work would require LICENSEE to distribute CHIRPLAB under an open source license, then LICENSEE agrees not to make such incorporation.

4. CHIRPLAB is experimental in nature and is being licensed as is. The license of the CHIRPLAB does not include any technical support or documentation.

5. CIT represents and warrants that it has the right to license CHIRPLAB to LICENSEE.

6. LICENSEE agrees that any person within LICENSEE utilizing CHIRPLAB will be advised of, and is subject to, the conditions in this Agreement.

IN NO EVENT SHALL CIT BE LIABLE FOR ANY DAMAGES OR COSTS, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES OF ANY KIND, INCLUDING ECONOMIC DAMAGE OR INJURY TO PROPERTY AND LOST PROFITS, REGARDLESS OF WHETHER CIT SHALL BE ADVISED, HAVE REASON TO KNOW, OR IN FACT SHALL KNOW OF THE POSSIBILITY.

LICENSEE BEARS ALL RISK RELATING TO QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF CHIRPLAB OR ANY DERIVATIVE WORKS THEREOF.

8. All right, title, and interest in and to all data, information, and inventions that result from use of CHIRPLAB by the LICENSEE shall vest in and belong to the LICENSEE.
