Updates and Maintenance. We may, at our sole option, extend, enhance, or otherwise modify the Software, Documentation, or any part thereof with or without notice. This Agreement governs any Updates that we make available—unless we provide a separate license with the Update, in which case the terms of that license will govern the Update.

You acknowledge that we have no obligation to provide any maintenance, technical or other support in respect of the ARTIK Products, Software, or Documentation.
Samsung Intellectual Property. Except for the limited licenses granted to you in this Agreement, all rights, title, and interest in and to the ARTIK Products, Software, Documentation, Updates, and any Samsung Confidential Information, that are made available to you under this Agreement, including but not limited to all related changes, Updates, improvements, Derivative Works and Intellectual Property Rights (“Samsung IP”) remain, at all times, the sole and exclusive property of Samsung.

Other than the license rights expressly set out in this Agreement, Samsung does not grant to you and you do not receive, whether by implication, estoppel or otherwise, any ownership right, title or interest nor any security interest or other interest in any Intellectual Property Rights relating to the Developer Kit, nor in any copy of any part of the foregoing, nor any other licenses, immunity or rights, express or implied.
Your Intellectual Property. Except for the rights granted to Samsung in this Agreement and the Samsung IP, you and your licensors retain all right, title and interest in and to the Developer Products. Except for the Samsung IP, you may, subject to the terms of this Agreement, use, disclose, reproduce, distribute or otherwise exploit any ideas, suggestions or other feedback Samsung provides to you or your licensors regarding any Developer Product.
Derivative Works. Developer shall own all right, title and interest in any Derivative Works to the Software made by Developer, subject to Samsung’s ownership of the underlying Software and the restrictions on use of the Software contained herein; provided, however, that Developer hereby grants to Samsung and its Affiliates a perpetual, irrevocable, world-wide, exclusive, sublicenseable, royalty-free license to use, make, copy, sell, offer for sale, distribute, export, modify and create derivative works from, and otherwise exploit, such Derivative Works.
Confidential Information. You acknowledge and agree that the any information you receive from Samsung that is designated as confidential, or that would be reasonably understood to be confidential constitutes "Confidential Information" for the purposes of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Confidential Information does not include information that you can demonstrate by written evidence: (i) is generally and legitimately available to the public through no fault or breach by you, (ii) that Samsung has generally made available to the public, (iii) that you independently developed without use or reliance of any Confidential Information, (iv) that you lawfully obtained from a third party who has the right to transfer or disclose the information to you without limitation, or (v) any Open Source Software included in the ARTIK Products, the licensing terms of which do not contain obligations of confidentiality.
Use and Protections of Confidential Information. You must protect Confidential Information using a degree of care that is no less than that which you use to protect your own confidential information of the same or similar importance (and in any event, no less than a reasonable degree of care). You and your Authorized Users who have a “need to know” may use Confidential Information solely for the purpose of exercising your rights and performing your obligations under this Agreement. You acknowledge that any use of Samsung Confidential Information in violation of this Agreement would cause Samsung irreparable harm for which there may be no adequate remedy at law. Accordingly, you agree that Samsung shall have the right to apply to any court of competent jurisdiction for injunctive relief and specific performance, without prejudice to any remedies otherwise available to Samsung at law or in equity.

SAMSUNG GIVES NO EXPRESS AND/OR IMPLIED WARRANTIES, GUARANTEE OR CONDITIONS.
Limitation of Liability.

YOUR UNDERSTANDING, ACKNOWLEDGEMENT AND ACCEPTANCE OF THIS AGREEMENT ARE THE LEGAL BASIS AND CONSIDERATION FOR THE LICENSES GRANTED UNDER IT. IN NO EVENT SHALL SAMSUNG’S TOTAL LIABILITY TO YOU UNDER THIS AGREEMENT FOR ALL DAMAGES (OTHER THAN AS MAY BE REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW IN CASES INVOLVING PERSONAL INJURY) EXCEED THE GREATER OF THE AMOUNT PAID TO SAMSUNG FOR THE SOFTWARE AND/OR ARTIK PRODUCTS OR THE AMOUNT OF ONE HUNDRED DOLLARS ($100.00).
To the fullest extent permitted by law, you agree to indemnify, defend and hold harmless Samsung, its affiliates, directors, officers, employees, independent contractors and agents (each a "Samsung Indemnified Party") from any and all claims, losses, liabilities, damages, expenses and costs (including without limitation reasonable attorneys’ fees) (collectively "Losses") incurred by a Samsung Indemnified Party as a result of your (or your Authorized User’s) breach of this Agreement, any claims that your Developer Product violates or infringes any third party intellectual property or proprietary rights, or otherwise related to or arising from your (or any Authorized User’s) use of the Software, ARTIK Products, or any part thereof, Updates, or other products and services provided by Samsung under this Agreement or your Developer Product or your (or any Authorized User’s) development or distribution of any Developer Product (each a “Claim”).
You acknowledge that the Software and ARTIK Products are not intended to be used in the development of any Developer Product where death, personal injury, or severe physical or environmental damage could result from errors or inaccuracies in the content, data or information provided by the Developer Product or by Developer Product failures.

This Addendum A is an addendum to the Samsung ARTIK Developer License Agreement (“Agreement”) and provides additional terms and conditions governing your use of the Samsung TrustWare Software, Documentation, and any Updates thereto (collectively, “TrustWare Software”) and Samsung’s proprietary “S” Modules. By downloading the TrustWare Software or any portion thereof from the ARTIK.IO Website or opening the package for any ARTIK Product containing the TrustWare Software or any portion thereof, you are agreeing to be bound by the additional terms and conditions set forth in this Addendum. You agree that the Agreement, including the terms set forth in this Addendum, is enforceable like any written negotiated agreement signed by you. All terms and conditions embodied in the Agreement shall continue to apply to your use of all or any portion of the TrustWare Software, and all capitalized terms in the Agreement shall have the same meaning as those set forth in the Agreement. To the extent that there is any conflict between the terms and conditions of the Agreement and this Addendum, the terms and conditions of this Addendum shall control, but only to the extent necessary to resolve such conflict.
Definitions. When used in this Addendum, the following terms have the meanings indicated below. All other defined terms have the meanings ascribed to them in the Agreement or other provisions of this Addendum.
“TrustWare” means the software developed by Samsung for supporting ARM TrustZone hardware security extensions. It consists of a secure operating system, drivers, a daemon and libraries. The operating system can be run in parallel with a more fully featured high level OS, such as Linux, Android on the same core.
“TrustWare Highly Confidential Information means the TrustWare binaries which run on TrustZone and keys used by Trustware.
“TrustWare Licensed Device” means a device that (i) incorporates a Samsung “S” Module and (ii) meets all of the requirements set forth in this Addendum.
Developer’s license under Section 2 of the Agreement is subject to two additional limitations with respect to TrustWare: (i) the term “Developer Product” in Section 2.1 is limited to a TrustWare Licensed Device and (ii) the term “ARTIK Product” is limited to a Samsung “S” Module.
Defeating Functions: a TrustWare Licensed Device shall not include: (a) switches, buttons, jumpers or software equivalents thereof, (b) specific traces (electronic connections) that can be cut, or (c) control functions (including service menus and remote-control functions), in each case by which the provisions of the TrustWare can be defeated.
Keep Secrets: a TrustWare Licensed Device shall be manufactured in a manner that is clearly designed to effectively frustrate attempts to discover or reveal (a) TrustWare Highly Confidential Information and (b) the methods and cryptographic algorithms used by TrustWare.
Maintain Integrity: a TrustWare Licensed Device shall be manufactured in a manner that is clearly designed to effectively frustrate attempts to cause such products to use TrustWare Highly Confidential Information after unauthorized modification occurs.
Methods of Making Functions Robust.
TrustWare Licensed Device shall be manufactured using at least the following techniques in a manner that is clearly designed to effectively frustrate attempts to defeat the requirements set forth below.
be designed so as to perform self-checking of the integrity of its component parts with digital code signing technology and be designed to result in a failure of the implementation in order to ensure the authorized authentication or decryption functions in the event of unauthorized modification. The protection methods may include, but not limited to, secure boot, physical security, computer security.
be designed such that attempts to reprogram, remove or replace hardware elements of a TrustWare Licensed Device in a way that would compromise the security of TrustWare would pose a serious risk of damaging the TrustWare Licensed Device so that it would no longer be able to act as TrustWare Licensed Device. By way of example, a component that is soldered rather than socketed may be appropriate for this means. The protection methods may include, but not limited to, removing or destruct JTAG debug interface completely for this means.
For purposes of this Addendum, “hardware” means a physical device, including a component, that implements the TrustWare and that (a) does not include instructions or data other than such instructions or data that are permanently embedded in such device or component; or (b) includes instructions or data that are not permanently embedded in such device or component where such instructions or data have been customized for such TrustWare Licensed Device and such instructions or data are not accessible to the end user through such TrustWare Licensed Device.
Hybrid: The interfaces between hardware and software portions of TrustWare Licensed Device shall be designed so that they provide a similar level of protection which would be provided by a purely hardware or purely software implementation as described above.
TrustWare Licensed Device shall be designed and implemented such that the TrustWare cannot be defeated or circumvented merely by an ordinary user using generally-available tools or equipment such as screwdrivers, jumpers, clips or soldering irons (“Widely Available Tools”), or using specialized electronics tools or software tools that are widely available for the specific purpose of bypassing or circumventing protection technologies used to meet the requirements set forth in this subpart. Such specialized electronic tools or software tools include, but is not limited to, EEPROM readers and writers, debuggers or decompilers (“Specialized Tools”), excluding devices or technologies whether Hardware or Software that are designed and made available for the specific purpose of bypassing or circumventing the protection technologies required by TrustWare (“Circumvention Devices”). The protection afforded by the TrustWare in a TrustWare Licensed Device shall be designed such that the security mechanism can only be defeated or circumvented with difficulty using professional tools or equipment, such as logic analyzers, chip disassembly systems, or in-circuit emulators or any other tools, equipment, methods, or techniques not described in the definition of Widely Available Tools and Specialized Tools in this section above such as would be used primarily by persons with professional skills or training, excluding professional tools or equipment that are made available only on the basis of a non-disclosure agreement or Circumvention Devices.
Although an implementation of TrustWare Licensed Device when designed and shipped may meet the above standards, certain tools and equipment which were not available at the time may become widely available at a reasonable price. This availability may lead to such implementation becoming non-compliant through no act of Developer.
Therefore, if: (a) one or more tools or equipment become generally available to users at a reasonable price, and (b) if such tools had been available at the time of design of a particular TrustWare Licensed Device, and such availability would have caused such products to fail to comply with these Robustness Rules, and (c) such availability, based on facts made known to the Developer, is likely to pose a substantial and imminent harm to other TrustWare Licensee, then within eighteen (18) months after learning of (a), (b), and (c), above, the Developer shall cease distribution of such TrustWare Licensed Device and shall only distribute TrustWare Licensed Devices which are compliant with these Robustness Rules in view of the then current circumstances, whether these be new or upgraded TrustWare Licensed Device.
Upon Samsung’s request, Developer must certify to Samsung, at Developer’s expense, that each TrustWare Licensed Device meets all requirements set forth in the Agreement and this Addendum. Developer must document its certification with appropriate reports and supporting materials and will promptly make such documentation available to Samsung upon request. Samsung may also specify additional information or materials that Developer must submit for Samsung to assess Developer’s TrustWare Licensed Devices in connection with any certification request, and Developer agrees to promptly provide such information and materials.
If Developer (a) makes any changes to an element of a TrustWare Licensed Device, which such element is required for compliance with the terms and conditions of the Agreement and this Addendum; (b) otherwise changes the implementation, operation, or functionality of a TrustWare Licensed Device; or (c) modifies the implementation of any TrustWare in a TrustWare Licensed Device, then, in each case, Developer will notify Samsung in writing of such change by emailing the Developer’s account representative. In each of the foregoing cases, or at any other time, in Samsung’s sole discretion, Samsung may require Developer to re-certify a TrustWare Licensed Device, as described above.
Developer shall maintain account books and records demonstrating its compliance with all requirements set forth in the Agreement and this Addendum and maintain such records during the Term and for three (3) years thereafter. Samsung may, or may have an independent third party designated by Samsung, audit and inspect Developer at any time during the Term, and for a period of three years thereafter, to assess whether all TrustWare has been, and is being, used, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and this Addendum. Samsung will provide Developer at least 5 days’ notice before commencing such an audit, and Developer will support, and will not in any way hinder or delay, the execution of a properly noticed audit.
Developer will immediately suspend, or cause to be suspended, all manufacture, sales, and distribution of TrustWare Licensed Devices that no longer pass any Samsung-specified certification test or otherwise no longer comply with any of the obligations of this Agreement and this Addendum.
This Addendum B is an addendum to the Samsung ARTIK Developer License Agreement (“Agreement”) and provides additional terms and conditions governing your use of the Samsung Codesigner Software, Documentation, and any Updates thereto listed described in more detail below in Section 1.1 of this Addendum (“Codesigner Software”). By downloading the Codesigner Software or any portion thereof from the ARTIK.IO Website or opening the package for any ARTIK Product containing the Codesigner Software or any portion thereof, you are agreeing to be bound by the additional terms and conditions set forth in this Addendum. You agree that the Agreement, including the terms set forth in this Addendum, is enforceable like any written negotiated agreement signed by you. All terms and conditions embodied in the Agreement shall continue to apply to your use of all or any portion of the Codesigner Software, and all capitalized terms in the Agreement shall have the same meaning as those set forth in the Agreement. To the extent that there is any conflict between the terms and conditions of the Agreement and this Addendum, the terms and conditions of this Addendum shall control, but only to the extent necessary to resolve such conflict.
Internal Development Only. Use of the Codesigner Software is for Developer’s internal development purposes only. It is not designed for commercial use.
Commercial License Required. Any use of Codesigner Software for production purposes requires a separate commercial license with Samsung.
Developer certifies, warrants, and agrees that it will abide by these limitations with respect to its use of Codesigner Software.
