Except as stated above, this Agreement does not grant you any intellectual property rights in the Software. This Agreement provides the terms and conditions under which you are licensed to use the Software. It is not an agreement for the sale of the Software to you.

3.Transfer

You may not rent, lease, sublicense, or lend the Software. You may, however, transfer all of your rights to use the Software to another person or legal entity provided (1) that you transfer this Agreement, the Software, including all copies, updates, and prior versions, to such person or entity, (2) that you retain no copies, including copies stored on a computer, and (3) that the receiving party accepts the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

This Agreement will not be governed by the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods, the application of which is expressly excluded.
