"Educational Use" means Authorized User’s non-commercial and personal, educational or research use of the Software solely for the purposes of education, research, design, development, evaluation or testing, but not for production use or for deployment or use in a production or commercial environment or any manner that would result in direct or indirect financial benefit including use of derivative works .

Without the prior written consent of STI, the Software may only be used with STI PHANTOM® hardware or other STI branded hardware; the use of any other haptics hardware is specifically prohibited. The Authorized User may not lease, rent, sell, sub-license, transfer, or distribute, except to the extent expressly permitted by applicable law and to the extent that STI is not permitted by that applicable law to exclude or limit such rights.  The Authorized User shall be permitted to create and distribute derivative works, provided that (a) any such distribution is pursuant to a license agreement whose terms are no less restrictive than the terms of this License; (b) any such distribution is to another user who is also authorized to download the Software by virtue of its affiliation with an Eligible Educational Institution; and (c) such derivative work (i) shall not offer substantially equivalent or similar functionality to that provided by any STI product, or otherwise compete with any STI product, (ii) shall contain a readable copy of the STI attribution notices and (iii) shall constitute a substantial modification of the Software and (d) such derivative work shall not directly or indirectly result in financial benefit to the Authorized User. The Authorized User shall not make copies of the Software.

Authorized User assumes the entire responsibility for the selection and use of the Software, the output thereof, and for decisions made and actions taken based thereon and agrees to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless STI and its directors, officers, employees and agents from and against any and all claims, suits, proceedings and actions brought or threatened against STI that in any way relate to, arise from or result from any such decisions and/or actions.

The Authorized User's license to use the Software will terminate immediately without notice from STI if the Authorized User fails to comply with any provision of this License. If the Authorized User institutes litigation against STI or its licensors (including a cross-claim or counterclaim in a lawsuit) alleging that the Software or a any work incorporated within the Software constitutes direct or contributory infringement, then any licenses granted to Authorized User under this License shall terminate as of the date such litigation is filed.

All other terms, conditions and provisions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect.  Failure to enforce any of the terms or conditions of this License shall not constitute a waiver of any such terms or conditions, or of any other terms or conditions. This License and the rights and benefits hereunder shall inure to the benefit of the parties and their respective successors and assigns.  Authorized User cannot assign, transfer or delegate without the prior written consent of STI.
