READ THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF THIS AGREEMENT CAREFULLY BEFORE INSTALLING, COPYING AND USING THIS COMPUTER SOFTWARE AND THE ACCOMPANYING DOCUMENTATION (THE "SOFTWARE"). THE SOFTWARE IS COPYRIGHTED AND IT IS LICENSED TO YOU UNDER THIS AGREEMENT, NOT SOLD TO YOU. BY INSTALLING, COPYING OR OTHERWISE USING THE SOFTWARE, YOU AGREE TO BE BOUND BY THE TERMS OF THIS EULA.

THIS AGREEMENT SUPERSEDES AND REPLACES ANY PRIOR PROPOSAL, REPRESENTATION, OR UNDERSTANDING YOU MAY HAVE HAD WITH PARALLELS SOFTWARE INTERNATIONAL, INC. RELATING TO THE SOFTWARE.

Grant of License

Parallels Software International, Inc. hereby grants to you, and you accept, a limited, nonexclusive license to use the Software in machine-readable, object code form only, and the user manuals accompanying the Software (the "Documentation"), only as authorized in this Agreement.

Scope of Use

You may use one copy of the Software registered with a registration key on a single personal computer owned, leased, or otherwise controlled by you, at a single time.

For purposes of this Agreement, "use" of the Software means loading the Software into the temporary or permanent memory of a computer.

The Software may not be used on or distributed to a greater number of computers than you have registration keys. If you use or distribute the Software to multiple users, you must ensure that the number of users does not exceed the number of registration keys you have obtained, or you will be in breach of this Agreement.

Except as authorized in this Section, no copies of the Software, Documentation, or registration keys, or any portions thereof, may be made by you or any person under your authority or control.

You shall permit only authorized users, who possess rightfully, obtained license keys, to use the Software or to view the Documentation.
