agree that, as a condition to your using the Program Utilities, you will not
use or allow third parties to use the Program Utilities and the New Game
Materials created by you for any commercial purposes, including but not limited
to selling, renting, leasing, licensing, distributing, or otherwise
transferring the ownership of such New Game Materials, whether on a stand alone
basis or packaged in combination with the New Game Materials created by others,
through any and all distribution channels, including, without limitation,
retail sales and on-line electronic distribution. You agree not to solicit,
initiate or encourage any proposal or offer from any person or entity to create
any New Game Materials for commercial distribution. You agree to promptly
inform Activision in writing of any instances of your receipt of any such
proposal or offer.

you decide to make available the use of the New Game Materials created by you
to other gamers, you agree to do so solely without charge.
• New
Game Materials shall not contain modifications to any COM, EXE or DLL files or
to any other executable Product files.

Game Materials may be created only if such New Game Materials can be used
exclusively in combination with the retail version of the Program. New Game
Materials may not be designed to be used as a stand-alone product.
• New

materials that infringe rights of privacy and publicity of third parties or
(without appropriate irrevocable licenses granted specifically for that
purpose) any trademarks, copyright-protected works or other properties of third

New Game Materials must contain prominent identification at least in any
on-line description and with reasonable duration on the opening screen: (a) the

Game Materials made publicly available by you for any purpose whatsoever,
including but not limited to, for purpose of advertising and promoting the

LIMITED WARRANTY: Activision warrants to the original
consumer purchaser of the Program that the recording medium on which the
Program is recorded will be free from defects in material and workmanship for
90 days from the date of purchase. If the recording medium is found defective
within 90 days of original purchase, Activision agrees to replace, free of
charge, any product discovered to be defective within such period upon its
receipt of the Product, postage paid, with proof of the date of purchase, as
long as the Program is still being manufactured by Activision. In the event
that the Program is no longer available, Activision retains the right to
substitute a similar program of equal or greater value. This warranty is
limited to the recording medium containing the Program as originally provided
by Activision and is not applicable to normal wear and tear. This warranty
shall not be applicable and shall be void if the defect has arisen through
abuse, mistreatment, or neglect. Any implied warranties prescribed by statute
are expressly limited to the 90-day period described above.
EXCEPT AS SET FORTH ABOVE, THIS WARRANTY IS IN LIEU OF ALL
OTHER WARRANTIES, WHETHER ORAL OR WRITTEN, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING ANY
WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE OR
NON-INFRINGEMENT, AND NO OTHER REPRESENTATIONS OR CLAIMS OF ANY KIND SHALL BE
BINDING ON OR OBLIGATE ACTIVISION.
When returning the Program for warranty replacement please
send the original product disks only in protective packaging and include: (1) a
photocopy of your dated sales receipt; (2) your name and return address typed
or clearly printed; (3) a brief note describing the defect, the problem(s) you
are encountered and the system on which you are running the Program; (4) if you
are returning the Program after the 90-day warranty period, but within one year
after the date of purchase, please include check or money order for $10 U.S.

LIMITATION ON DAMAGES: IN NO EVENT WILL ACTIVISION BE LIABLE
FOR SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES RESULTING FROM POSSESSION, USE
OR MALFUNCTION OF THE PROGRAM, INCLUDING DAMAGES TO PROPERTY, LOSS OF GOODWILL,
COMPUTER FAILURE OR MALFUNCTION AND, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, DAMAGES
FOR PERSONAL INJURIES, EVEN IF ACTIVISION HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY
OF SUCH DAMAGES. ACTIVISION’S LIABILITY SHALL NOT EXCEED THE ACTUAL PRICE PAID
FOR THE LICENSE TO USE THIS PROGRAM. SOME STATES/COUNTRIES DO NOT ALLOW
LIMITATIONS ON HOW LONG AN IMPLIED WARRANTY LASTS AND/OR THE EXCLUSION OR
LIMITATION OF INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, SO THE ABOVE LIMITATIONS
AND/OR EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION OF LIABILITY MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU. THIS WARRANTY
GIVES YOU SPECIFIC LEGAL RIGHTS, AND YOU MAY HAVE OTHER RIGHTS WHICH VARY FROM
JURISDICTION TO JURISDICTION.
TERMINATION: Without prejudice to any other rights of
Activision, this Agreement will terminate automatically if you fail to comply
with its terms and conditions. In such event, you must destroy all copies of
the Program and all of its component parts.
U.S. GOVERNMENT RESTRICTED RIGHTS: the Program and
documentation have been developed entirely at private expense and are provided
as “Commercial Computer Software” or “restricted computer software.” Use,
duplication or disclosure by the U.S. Government or a U.S. Government
subcontractor is subject to the restrictions set forth in subparagraph
(c)(1)(ii) of the Rights in Technical Data and Computer Software clauses in
DFARS 252.227-7013 or as set forth in subparagraph (c)(1) and (2) of the
Commercial Computer Software Restricted Rights clauses at FAR 52.227-19, as
applicable. The Contractor/Manufacturer is Activision, Inc., 3100 Ocean Park
Boulevard, Santa Monica, California 90405.
INJUNCTION: Because Activision would be irreparably damaged
if the terms of this Agreement were not specifically enforced, you agree that
Activision shall be entitled, without bond, other security or proof of damages,
to appropriate equitable remedies with respect to breaches of this Agreement,
in addition to such other remedies as Activision may otherwise have under
applicable laws.
INDEMNITY: You agree to indemnify, defend and hold
Activision, its partners, licensors, affiliates, contractors, officers,
directors, employees and agents harmless from all damages, losses and expenses
arising directly or indirectly from your acts and omissions to act in using the
Product pursuant to the terms of this Agreement
MISCELLANEOUS: This Agreement represents the complete
agreement concerning this license between the parties and supersedes all prior
agreements and representations between them. It may be amended only by a
writing executed by both parties. If any provision of this Agreement is held to
be unenforceable for any reason, such provision shall be reformed only to the
extent necessary to make it enforceable and the remaining provisions of this
Agreement shall not be affected. This Agreement shall be construed under
California law as such law is applied to agreements between California
residents entered into and to be performed within California, except as
governed by federal law and you consent to the exclusive jurisdiction of the
state and federal courts in Los Angeles, California.
If you have any questions concerning this license, you may
contact Activision at 3100 Ocean Park Boulevard, Santa Monica, California
