2 Subject Matter of the EULA
2.1 The subject matter of this EULA is the perpetual gratuitous grant of the License for the Licensed Software from its version v1.1.0. For the avoidance of doubt, vi:sit may in its sole discretion decide to release a different end user license agreement for any newer version(s) of the Twizzar-Library. In this case, such newer version(s) of the Twizzar-Library will not be subject to the present EULA but solely to the then applicable different end user license agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this EULA remains in force and effect for the Licensed Software (i.e. from version v1.1.0 to the predecessor version of the version that is subject to the different end user license agreement).
2.2 vi:sit provides the Licensed Software as a library in the form of DLLs as a NuGet package. The Licensed Software is needed to execute the unit tests developed and configured in advance using vi:sit’s other proprietary software Twizzar which is not subject to this EULA and, thus, must be procured separately.
2.3 The provisions of this EULA govern exclusively. Standard terms and conditions of Licensee do not apply, even if vi:sit has not expressly rejected the application of such terms and conditions.
2.4 Other work such as advice in selecting software, installation, implementation, modification, parametrization, customization, software maintenance, support, etc. or familiarization and training are not covered by this EULA. Such services, if offered by vi:sit at all, are subject to other contractual terms and conditions which are independent of this EULA.

Licensee shall, however, request vi:sit for, and give vi:sit an opportunity to provide within a reasonable time, the necessary information and documents for establishing interoperability before Licensee carries out any disassembly, de-compilation, reverse engineering or the like in accordance with Art. 21 of the Swiss Copyright Act (URG). Licensee may exercise its rights under Art. 21 of the Swiss Copyright Act (URG) only if vi:sit fails to comply with the aforesaid request. However, information obtained by way of disassembly, de-compilation, reverse engineering or the like must not be used or passed on to third parties for any other purpose than the development, maintenance and use of the other independently created interoperable computer program and must not be used to develop, produce or market a computer program substantially similar in its expression or for any other acts which infringe copyrights.
