VA Code § 59.1-503.7 (2021)
2021 Code of Virginia|Title 59.1 - Trade and Commerce|Chapter 43 - Uniform Computer Information Transactions Act|§ 59.1-503.7. Interpretation and requirements for grant

(a) A license grants:(1) the contractual rights that are expressly described; and(2) a contractual right to use any informational rights within the licensor's control at the time of contracting which are necessary in the ordinary course to exercise the expressly described rights.(b) If a license expressly limits use of the information or informational rights, use in any other manner is a breach of contract. In all other cases, a license contains an implied limitation that the licensee will not use the information or informational rights otherwise than as described in subsection (a). However, use inconsistent with this implied limitation is not a breach if it is permitted under applicable law in the absence of the implied limitation.(c) A party is not entitled to any rights in new versions of, or improvements or modifications to, information made by the other party. A licensor's agreement to provide new versions, improvements, or modifications requires that the licensor provide them as developed and made generally commercially available from time to time by the licensor.(d) Neither party is entitled to receive copies of source code, schematics, master copy, design material, or other information used by the other party in creating, developing, or implementing the information.(e) Terms concerning scope must be construed under ordinary principles of contract interpretation in light of the informational rights and the commercial context. In addition, the following rules apply:(1) A grant of "all possible rights and for all media" or "all rights and for all media now known or later developed," or a grant in similar terms, includes all rights then existing or later created by law and all uses, media, and methods of distribution or exhibition, whether then existing or developed in the future and whether or not anticipated at the time of the grant.(2) A grant of an "exclusive license," or a grant in similar terms, means that:(A) for the duration of the license, the licensor will not exercise, and will not grant to any other person, rights in the same information or informational rights within the scope of the exclusive grant; and(B) the licensor affirms that it has not previously granted those rights in a contract in effect when the licensee's rights may be exercised.(f) The rules in this section may be varied only by a record that is sufficient to indicate that a contract has been made and that is:(1) authenticated by the party against whom enforcement is sought; or(2) prepared and delivered by one party and adopted by the other under § 59.1-502.8 or § 59.1-502.9.2000, cc. 101, 996; 2004, c. 794.

(a) Except as otherwise provided in subsection (b), an agreement that provides that the performance of one party is to be to the satisfaction or approval of the other party requires performance sufficient to satisfy a reasonable person in the position of the party that must be satisfied.(b) Performance must be to the subjective satisfaction of the other party if:(1) the agreement expressly so provides, such as by stating that approval is in the "sole discretion" of the party, or words of similar import; or(2) the agreement is for informational content to be evaluated in reference to subjective characteristics such as aesthetics, appeal, suitability to taste, or subjective quality.2000, cc. 101, 996.

2021 Code of Virginia|Title 59.1 - Trade and Commerce|Chapter 43 - Uniform Computer Information Transactions Act|§ 59.1-504.2. Express warranty

(a) Subject to subsection (c), an express warranty by a licensor is created as follows:(1) An affirmation of fact or promise made by the licensor to its licensee, including by advertising, which relates to the information and becomes part of the basis of the bargain creates an express warranty that the information to be furnished under the agreement will conform to the affirmation or promise.(2) Any description of the information which is made part of the basis of the bargain creates an express warranty that the information will conform to the description.(3) Any sample, model, or demonstration of a final product which is made part of the basis of the bargain creates an express warranty that the performance of the information will reasonably conform to the performance of the sample, model, or demonstration, taking into account differences that would appear to a reasonable person in the position of the licensee between the sample, model, or demonstration and the information as it will be used.(b) It is not necessary to the creation of an express warranty that the licensor use formal words, such as "warranty" or "guaranty", or state a specific intention to make a warranty. However, an express warranty is not created by:(1) an affirmation or prediction merely of the value of the information or informational rights;(2) a display or description of a portion of the information to illustrate the aesthetics, appeal, suitability to taste, subjective quality, or the like of informational content; or(3) a statement purporting to be merely opinion or commendation of the information or informational rights.(c) An express warranty or similar express contractual obligation, if any, exists with respect to published informational content covered by this chapter to the same extent that it would exist if the published informational content had been published in a form that placed it outside this chapter. However, if the warranty or similar express contractual obligation is breached, the remedies of the aggrieved party are those under this chapter and the agreement.2000, cc. 101, 996.

The following rules apply to a transfer of a contractual interest:(1) A party's contractual interest may be transferred unless the transfer:(A) is prohibited by other law; or(B) except as otherwise provided in paragraph (3), would materially change the duty of the other party, materially increase the burden or risk imposed on the other party, or materially impair the other party's property or its likelihood or expectation of obtaining return performance.(2) Except as otherwise provided in paragraph (3) and § 59.1-505.8 (a) (1) (B), a term prohibiting transfer of a party's contractual interest is enforceable, and a transfer made in violation of that term is a breach of contract and is ineffective to create contractual rights in the transferee against the nontransferring party, except to the extent that:(A) the contract is a license for incorporation or use of the licensed information or informational rights with information or informational rights from other sources in a combined work for public distribution or public performance and the transfer is of the completed, combined work;(B) the transfer is of a right to payment arising out of the transferor's due performance of less than its entire obligation and the transfer would be enforceable under paragraph (1) in the absence of the term prohibiting transfer; or(C) the term is in a mass-market license, the transfer is made along with a computer, and the transfer is a gift or a donation (i) to a public elementary or secondary school, (ii) to a public library, (iii) to an organization exempt from taxation under § 501(c) (3) of the Internal Revenue Code, or (iv) from a consumer to another consumer.(D) [Repealed.](3) A right to damages for breach of the whole contract or a right to payment arising out of the transferor's due performance of its entire obligation may be transferred notwithstanding an agreement otherwise.(4) A term that prohibits transfer of a contractual interest under a mass-market license by the licensee must be conspicuous.2000, cc. 101, 996; 2001, cc. 762, 763; 2002, c. 403.

The promise is enforceable by the transferor and any other party to the original contract.(4) The transfer does not relieve the transferor of any duty to perform, or of liability for breach of contract, unless the other party to the original contract agrees that the transfer has that effect.(c) A party to the original contract, other than the transferor, may treat a transfer that conveys a right or duty of performance without its consent as creating reasonable grounds for insecurity and, without prejudice to the party's rights against the transferor, may demand assurances from the transferee under § 59.1-507.8.2000, cc. 101, 996.

If the transfer is effective, the transferee takes subject to the terms of the license.(b) Except as otherwise provided under trade secret law, a transferee acquires no more than the contractual interest or other rights that the transferor was authorized to transfer.2000, cc. 101, 996.
