1. Evaluation of the Software.
[You agree to use the unregistered software solely for evaluation.]
If you have not paid to Alchemy Mindworks the specified license fee for the Software, you undertake that you are installing it to be used solely as an evaluation copy.

At such time as you have concluded your evaluation of the Software, you will either pay the license fee for the software to Alchemy Mindworks or delete the Software in its entirety and any copies thereof in your possession. In the event that you use an unlicensed copy of the Software to create content which is included as part of a web page or any other publicly-accessible document, you explicitly grant to Alchemy Mindworks the non-exclusive right to use the content so created and derivative works thereof with no requirement of payment or other compensation to the copyright holder, in any manner as deemed suitable by Alchemy Mindworks, in perpetuity, this condition not being in lieu of payment of the license fee for the Software.

[You agree to be certain the evaluation Software is what you need before you pay for it.]
You undertake that upon payment of the license fee for the Software, you have evaluated the Software and ascertained that it is suitable for your applications.

The Software is licensed as a single product. Its component parts may not be separated for use on more than one computer.
