rights that cover implementation of those standards. You acknowledge and agree
that this Agreement does not convey a license to any such third party patents,
copyrights, and other intellectual property rights and that you are solely
responsible for any patent, copyright, or other intellectual property right

your use and distribution of your products that include or incorporate the
Licensed Materials.
5. Confidential Information. You acknowledge and agree that the Licensed
Materials contain trade secrets and other confidential information of TI and
TI's licensors. You agree to use the Licensed Materials solely within the scope

section. TI may disclose your contact information to TI's applicable licensors.
6. Warranties and Limitations. YOU ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT THE LICENSED
MATERIALS MAY NOT BE INTENDED FOR PRODUCTION APPLICATIONS AND MAY CONTAIN

otherwise be excused from the performance of any obligations it may have under
this Agreement for which the licenses or government approvals are required.
13. Entire Agreement. This is the entire Agreement between you and TI, and
absent a signed and effective software license agreement related to the subject
matter of this Agreement, this Agreement supersedes any prior agreement between
the parties related to the subject matter of this Agreement. Notwithstanding
