If YOU do not agree to the terms of this Agreement, do not accept them and, if YOU have received the Software or Documentation, promptly return the entire Package to the place You obtained it for a full refund.

OWNERSHIP; COPYRIGHT: Title to the Software and the Documentation, including derivative works thereof, and patents, copyrights and all other property rights applicable thereto, shall at all times remain solely and exclusively with Licensor and its licensors, and You shall not take any action inconsistent with such title.
