2     described and claimed in US Patent No. 5,214,703, EPO Patent

4     "Device for the conversion of a digital block and use of same"
5     (hereinafter referred to as "Algorithm"). Any use of the Algorithm for
6     Commercial Purposes is thus subject to a license from Ascom Systec
7     Ltd. of CH-5506 Mägenwil (Switzerland), being the patentee and sole
8     owner of all rights, including the term IDEA(TM). Commercial Purposes
9     shall mean any revenue generating purpose including but not limited to

11     i) using the Algorithm for company internal purposes (subject to a
12     Site License).
13    
14     ii) incorporating an application software containing the Algorithm
15     into any hardware and/or software and distributing such hardware
16     and/or software and/or providing services related thereto to others
17     (subject to a Product License).
18    
19     iii) using a product containing an application software that uses the
20     Algorithm (subject to an End-User License), except in case where such
21     End-User has acquired an implied license by purchasing the said
22     product from an authorized licensee or where the End-User has already
23     signed up for a Site License.
24     All such commercial license agreements are available exclusively from
25     Ascom Systec Ltd. and may be requested via the Internet World Wide Web
26     at http://www.ascom.ch/systec/infosec.html or by sending an electronic
27     mail to IDEA@ascom.ch. Any misuse will be prosecuted.
28    
29     Use other than for Commercial Purposes is strictly limited to data
30     transfer between private individuals and not serving Commercial
31     Purposes. The use by government agencies, non-profit organizations
32     etc. is considered as use for Commercial Purposes but may be subject
33     to special conditions. Requests for waivers for non-commercial use
34     (e.g. by software developers) are welcome.
