PLEASE READ THE BINDING ARBITRATION AGREEMENT AND CLASS ACTION WAIVER (SECTION
20). IT AFFECTS HOW DISPUTES ARE RESOLVED.

These license terms are an agreement between Microsoft Corporation (or based
on where you live, one of its affiliates) and you. Please read them. They apply
to the software named above, which includes the media on which you received
it, if any. The terms also apply to any Microsoft

updates,
supplements,
Internet-based services, and
support services,
for this software, unless other terms accompany those items. If so, those terms
apply.

By using the software, you accept these terms. If you do not accept them, do
not use the software. *******************************************************************

If you comply with these license terms, you have the perpetual rights below.

1. INSTALLATION AND USE RIGHTS.

a. Installation and use. One user may install and use any number of copies of
the software on your devices to design, develop and test your device drivers
and supporting components, as defined by DCHU. Further, you may install, use
and/or deploy via a network management system or as part of a desktop image,
any number of copies of the software on computer devices within your internal
corporate network to design, develop and test your device drivers and supporting
components, as defined by DCHU, that run on a Microsoft operating system. Each
copy must be complete, including all copyright and trademark notices. You must
require end users to agree to terms that protect the software as much as these
license terms.

b. Included Microsoft Programs. The software contains other Microsoft programs.
These license terms govern your use of included Microsoft programs.

c. Utilities. The software contains certain components that are identified in
the Utilities List located https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=524839. Depending
on the specific edition of the software, the number of Utility files you receive
with the software may not be equal to the number of Utilities listed in the
Utilities List. Except as otherwise provided on the Utilities List for specific
files, you may copy and install the Utilities you receive with the software
on to other third party machines. These Utilities may only be used to debug
and deploy your programs and databases you have developed with the software.
You must delete all the Utilities installed onto a third party machine within
the earlier of (i) when you have finished debugging or deploying your programs;
or (ii) thirty (30) days after installation of the Utilities onto that machine.
We may add additional files to this list from time to time.

It also contains certain components that are identified in the Build Server
List located at https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=524838. You may install
copies of the Visual Studio 2017 Build Tools and copies of the files listed
in the Build Server list, onto your build machines, solely for the purpose of
compiling, building, verifying and archiving your device drivers. These components
may only be used in order to create and configure build systems internal to
your organization to support your internal build environment. These components
do not provide external distribution rights to any of the software or enable
you to provide a build environment as a service to third parties. We may add
additional files to this list from time to time.

e. Third Party Programs. The software may include third party code that Microsoft,
not the third party, licenses to you under this agreement. Notices, if any,
for the third party code are included for your information only and may be found
in the credits.rtf or ThirdPartyNotices.txt file associated with the software.

2. ADDITIONAL LICENSING REQUIREMENTS AND/OR USE RIGHTS.
a. Distributable Code. The software contains code that you are permitted to
distribute in programs you develop if you comply with the terms below.

i. Right to Use and Distribute. The code and text files listed below are “Distributable
Code.”

REDIST.TXT Files. You may copy and distribute the object code form of code listed
in REDIST.TXT files plus any of the files listed on the REDIST list located
at https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=294840.

Third party distribution. You may permit distributors of your programs to copy
and distribute the Distributable Code as part of those programs.

ii. Distribution Requirements. For any Distributable Code you distribute, you must

add significant primary functionality to it in your programs;
for any Distributable Code having a filename extension of .lib, distribute only
the results of running such Distributable Code through a linker with your program;
distribute Distributable Code included in a setup program only as part of that
setup program without modification;
require distributors and external end users to agree to terms that protect it
at least as much as this agreement;
display your valid copyright notice on your programs; and
indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Microsoft from any claims, including attorneys’
fees, related to the distribution or use of your programs.

iii. Distribution Restrictions. You may not

alter any copyright, trademark or patent notice in the Distributable Code;
use Microsoft’s trademarks in your programs’ names or in a way that suggests
your programs come from or are endorsed by Microsoft;
distribute Distributable Code to run on a platform other than the Windows platform;
include Distributable Code in malicious, deceptive or unlawful programs; or
modify or distribute the source code of any Distributable Code so that any part
of it becomes subject to an Excluded License. An Excluded License is one that
requires, as a condition of use, modification or distribution, that
the code be disclosed or distributed in source code form; or
others have the right to modify it.

iv. Distribution Rights for Features made Available with the Software.

Windows App Requirements. If you intend to make your program available in the
Microsoft Store, the program must comply with the Certification as defined and
described in the App Developer Agreement, currently available at: msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/apps/hh694058.aspx.

Bing Maps. The software may include features that retrieve content such as maps,
images, and other data through the Bing Maps (or successor branded) application
programming interface (the “Bing Maps API”) to create reports displaying
data on top of maps, aerial and hybrid imagery. If these features are included,
you may use these features to create and view dynamic or static documents only
in conjunction with and through methods and means of access integrated in the
software. You may not otherwise copy, store, archive, or create a database of
the entity information including business names, addresses and geocodes available
through the Bing Maps API. You may not use the Bing Maps API to provide sensor
based guidance/routing, nor use any Road Traffic Data or Bird’s Eye Maps API
and associated content is also subject to the additional terms and conditions
at https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkID=21969.

Additional Mapping APIs. The software may include application programming interfaces
that provide maps and other related mapping features and services that are not
provided by Bing (the “Additional Mapping APIs”). These Additional Mapping
APIs are subject to additional terms and conditions and may require payment
of fees to Microsoft and/or third party providers based on the use or volume
of use of such Additional Mapping APIs. These terms and conditions will be provided
when you obtain any necessary license keys to use such Additional Mapping APIs
or when you review or receive documentation related to the use of such Additional
Mapping APIs.

Push Notifications. The Microsoft Push Notification Service may not be used
to send notifications that are mission critical or otherwise could affect matters
of life or death, including without limitation critical notifications related
to a medical device or condition. MICROSOFT EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS ANY WARRANTIES
THAT THE USE OF THE MICROSOFT PUSH NOTIFICATION SERVICE OR DELIVERY OF MICROSOFT
PUSH NOTIFICATION SERVICE NOTIFICATIONS WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, ERROR FREE, OR
OTHERWISE GUARANTEED TO OCCUR ON A REAL-TIME BASIS.

Speech namespace API. Using speech recognition functionality via the Speech
namespace APIs in a program requires the support of a speech recognition service.
The service may require network connectivity at the time of recognition (e.g.,
when using a predefined grammar). In addition, the service may also collect
speech-related data in order to provide and improve the service. The speech-related
data may include, for example, information related to grammar size and string
phrases in a grammar.

Also, in order for a user to use speech recognition on the phone they must first
accept certain terms of use. The terms of use notify the user that data related
to their use of the speech recognition service will be collected and used to
provide and improve the service. If a user does not accept the terms of use
and speech recognition is attempted by the application, the operation will not
work and an error will be returned to the application.

API Use. We may monitor and collect data related to a program’s use of APIs
in order to provide, improve and personalize Microsoft products and services.
End user information collected by Microsoft’s monitoring and data collection
related to your program’s use of APIs is subject to the Microsoft Consumer
Privacy Statement.

Location Framework. The software may contain a location framework component
that enables support of location services in programs. In addition to the other
limitations in this agreement, you must comply with all applicable local laws
and regulations when using the location framework component or the rest of the
software.

Device ID Access. The software may contain a component that enables programs
to access the device ID of the device that is running the program. In addition
to the other limitations in this agreement, you must comply with all applicable
local laws and regulations when using the device ID access component or the
rest of the software.

PlayReady Support. The software may include the Windows Emulator, which contains
Microsoft’s PlayReady content access technology. Content owners use Microsoft
PlayReady content access technology to protect their intellectual property,
including copyrighted content. This software uses PlayReady technology to access
PlayReady-protected content and/or WMDRM-protected content. Microsoft may decide
to revoke the software’s ability to consume PlayReady-protected content for
reasons including but not limited to (i) if a breach or potential breach of
PlayReady technology occurs, (ii) proactive robustness enhancement, and (iii)
if Content owners require the revocation because the software fails to properly
enforce restrictions on content usage. Revocation should not affect unprotected
content or content protected by other content access technologies. Content owners
may require you to upgrade PlayReady to access their content. If you decline
an upgrade, you will not be able to access content that requires the upgrade
and may not be able to install other operating system updates or upgrades.

Package Managers. The software may include package managers, like NuGet, that
give you the option to download other Microsoft and third party software packages
to use with your application. Those packages are under their own licenses, and
not this agreement. Microsoft does not distribute, license or provide any warranties
for any of the third party packages.

Font Components. While the software is running, you may use its fonts to display
and print content. You may only embed fonts in content as permitted by the embedding
restrictions in the fonts; and temporarily download them to a printer or other
output device to help print content.

Notice about the H.264/AVD Visual Standard, and the VC-1 Video Standard. This
software may include H.264/MPEG-4 AVC and/or VD-1 decoding technology. MPEG
LA, L.L.C. requires this notice: THIS PRODUCT IS LICENSED UNDER THE AVC AND
THE VC-1 PATENT PORTFOLIO LICENSES FOR THE PERSONAL AND NON-COMMERCIAL USE OF

For clarification purposes, this notice does not limit or inhibit the use of
the software for normal business uses that are personal to that business which
do not include (i) redistribution of the software to third parties, or (ii)
creation of content with the VIDEO STANDARDS compliant technologies for distribution
to third parties.

DATA. The software may collect information about you and your use of the software
and send that to Microsoft. Microsoft may use this information to provide services
and improve our products and services. Your opt-out rights, if any, are described
in the product documentation. Some features in the software may enable collection
of data from users of your applications that access or use the software. If
you use these features to enable data collection in your applications, you must
comply with applicable law, including getting any required user consent, and
maintain a prominent privacy policy that accurately informs users about how
you use, collect, and share their data. You can learn more about Microsoft’s

BINDING ARBITRATION AND CLASS ACTION WAIVER IF YOU LIVE (OR, IF A BUSINESS,
YOUR PRINCIPAL PLACE OF BUSINESS IS) IN THE UNITED STATES. If we have a dispute,
you and we agree to try for 60 days to resolve it informally. If we can’t,
you and we agree to binding individual arbitration before the American Arbitration
Association under the Federal Arbitration Act, and not to sue in court in front
of a judge or jury. Instead, a neutral arbitrator will decide. Class action
lawsuits, class-wide arbitrations, private attorney-general actions, and any
other proceeding where someone acts in a representative capacity are not allowed;
nor is combining individual proceedings without the consent of all parties.
The complete Arbitration Agreement and Class Action Waiver contains more terms
and is at https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/legal/arbitration/default.aspx. You
and we agree to these terms.

ENTIRE AGREEMENT. This agreement, and the terms for supplements, updates, Internet-based
services and support services that you use, are the entire agreement for the
software and support services.

CONSUMER RIGHTS; REGIONAL VARIATIONS. This agreement describes certain legal
rights. You may have other rights, including consumer rights, under the laws
of your state or country. Separate and apart from your relationship with Microsoft,
you may also have rights with respect to the party from which you acquired the
software. This agreement does not change those other rights if the laws of your
state or country do not permit it to do so. For example, if you acquired the
software in one of the below regions, or mandatory country law applies, then
the following provisions apply to you:

a. Australia. You have statutory guarantees under the Australian Consumer Law
and nothing in these terms is intended to affect those rights.

b. Canada. If you acquired this software in Canada, you may stop receiving updates
by turning off the automatic update feature, disconnecting your device from
the Internet (if and when you re-connect to the Internet, however, the software
will resume checking for and installing updates), or uninstalling the software.
The product documentation, if any, may also specify how to turn off updates
for your specific device or software.

c. Germany and Austria.

i. Warranty. The properly licensed software will perform substantially as described
in any Microsoft materials that accompany the software. However, Microsoft gives
no contractual guarantee in relation to the licensed software.

ii. Limitation of Liability. In case of intentional conduct, gross negligence,
claims based on the Product Liability Act, as well as, in case of death or personal
or physical injury, Microsoft is liable according to the statutory law.

Subject to the foregoing clause (ii), Microsoft will only be liable for slight
negligence if Microsoft is in breach of such material contractual obligations,
the fulfillment of which facilitate the due performance of this agreement, the
breach of which would endanger the purpose of this agreement and the compliance
with which a party may constantly trust in (so-called "cardinal obligations").
In other cases of slight negligence, Microsoft will not be liable for slight
negligence.

DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTY. The software is licensed “as-is.” You bear the risk
of using it. Microsoft gives no express warranties, guarantees or conditions.
You may have additional consumer rights or statutory guarantees under your local
laws which this agreement cannot change. To the extent permitted under your
local laws, Microsoft excludes the implied warranties of merchantability, fitness
for a particular purpose and non-infringement.

LIMITATION ON AND EXCLUSION OF REMEDIES AND DAMAGES. You can recover from Microsoft
and its suppliers only direct damages up to U.S. $5.00. You cannot recover any
other damages, including consequential, lost profits, special, indirect or incidental
damages.

a. This limitation applies to
i. anything related to the software, services, content (including code) on third
party Internet sites, or third party programs; and
ii. claims for breach of contract, breach of warranty, guarantee or condition,
strict liability, negligence, or other tort to the extent permitted by applicable
law.

It also applies even if Microsoft knew or should have known about the possibility
of the damages. The above limitation or exclusion may not apply to you because
your country may not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental, consequential
or other damages.
