You may have "fair use" rights for the software under the law.
These terms do not limit them.

## No Other Rights

contributes to infringement of any patent, your patent license
for the software granted under these terms ends immediately.
If your company makes such a claim, your patent license ends
immediately for work on behalf of your company.

The first time you are notified in writing that you have
violated any of these terms, or done anything with the software
not covered by your licenses, your licenses can be restored
if 30 days have passed since the violation and you restore
compliance permanently.  Otherwise, all your licenses end
immediately.

## No Liability
