SOFTWARE LICENCE AGREEMENT
- Single User Licence -

Please read this software licence agreement ("Agreement") carefully before purchasing the software and 
installing and using it on your computer. By utilising the software, you expressly consent to the 
following licence conditions.

§ 1 Object of the Agreement, scope of application
1.Subject to the provisions of this Agreement, the ("Licensor") Erich Behmen shall provide the Customer 
("Licensee") with software for the Licensee’s utilisation against payment of a remuneration. All other 
rights relating to the software shall remain fully with the Licensor. The software shall exclusively be 
sold by "downloading" from the Licensor’s servers, or from the servers of authorised download providers 
after entry of the data required for the payment of the applicable licence fee. 

2.The terms and conditions of utilisation applicable for the website "www.tickinvest.com" shall apply 
additionally. Should the provisions of this Licence Agreement and the provisions of the terms and 
conditions of utilisation for the website "www.tickinvest.com" differ, the provisions of this Licence 
Agreement shall take priority.

§ 2 Copyrights
1.The software is copyrighted under the provisions for the protection of computer programmes. The 
copyrights in particular encompass the programme code, the documentation, the appearance, the structure 
and organisation of the programme data, the programme names, logos and other types of illustrations 
within the software. All rights resulting from the copyrights are held by the Licensor as the manufacturer.

2.In as far as business secrets are disclosed to the Licensee in the course of the utilisation of his 
licence, the Licensee undertakes to maintain confidentiality with regard to such secrets, for an 
indefinite period of time. The Licensee in particular undertakes to maintain secrecy with regard to the 
software and the documentation, and undertakes not to disclose them to third parties, neither as a whole 
nor in part, nor to forward them to third parties, unless the Licensee is entitled to do so under the 
provisions of this contract or any other written agreement with the Licensor.  

3.Copyright marks, serial numbers and other features which serve to identify the programme may not be 
removed or modified under any circumstances.

§ 3 Utilisation rights
The following provisions apply with regard to the granting of utilisation rights to software:

a) Scope of the licence 
1.Upon complete payment of the licence fee without any reservations, the Licensee shall obtain ordinary, 
generally indefinite, non-exclusive utilisation rights to the software and to the associated 
documentation for the Licensee’s own purposes.

2.Up until complete payment of the remuneration due in each case has been effected, the Licensee shall 
only be permitted to utilise the software with the proviso that this permission may be cancelled at any 
time. The Licensor shall have the right to withdraw the utilisation rights with regard to any services 
for which the Licensor has defaulted in payment of the remuneration, for the duration of such default. 
If utilisation rights are to be transferred for an indefinite period of time, the Licensee shall obtain 
the unlimited and irrevocable utilisation rights to the copyrighted services provided by the Licensor 
only upon complete payment of the agreed remuneration.

3.All data processing equipment (such as hard discs and central units) onto which the software is copied, 
whether entirely or in part and whether temporarily or permanently, must be located on the Licensee’s 
premises and must be in his direct possession. 

4.If utilisation rights are terminated or expire for other reasons, the Licensee shall return to the 
Licensor the software, any copies produced by the Licensee and the documentation. Should the physical 
surrender of the software and the copies not be possible for technical reasons, the Licensor shall delete 
these and confirm this in writing to the Licensor. 

b) Copying
1.The Licensee shall be permitted to copy the software to the extent to which this is necessary for the 
utilisation of the software. Necessary copies include the installation of the software from the original 
data carrier onto the hard disc of the used hardware, and the loading of the software into the random 
access memory.

2.The Licensee shall be permitted to duplicate each individual software copy once onto a permanent data 
carrier for purposes of data storage. Backup copies of the software must expressly be marked as such.

3.Other copies (including the output of the programme code onto a printer and the printing out and 
photocopying of the programme description) are not permitted. 

c) Multiple utilisation
If the Licensee changes the data processing equipment, the software must be deleted from the hard disc 
of the hardware used up until such time. He may not store, have available or use the software intended 
for one workstation on more than one appliance at the same time. It is not permitted to use software 
intended for one work station within a network or on other multi-station computer systems if this allows 
the multiple simultaneous utilisation of the software.

d) Forwarding of the full version including the licence key 
1.The Licensee may permanently forward the software and the accompanying documentation to third parties, 
provided that the third party obtaining the software accepts the terms and conditions of this contract 
regarding copyrights and utilisation rights as binding for himself. Upon forwarding the software, the 
Licensee shall no longer be permitted to use the software. In such cases, copies of the software must 
either be forwarded to the third party obtaining the software, or copies which are not handed over must 
be destroyed.

2.The software may not be rented out for commercial purposes. The Licensee may otherwise allow third 
parties the temporary utilisation of the software, provided that the third party accepts the terms and 
conditions of this framework contract regarding utilisation rights as binding for himself, and provided 
that the Licensee has handed over all copies of the software, including any backup copies which may exist, 
or has destroyed any copies which he does not hand over. During the time the software is let to a third 
party, the Licensee shall not be permitted to use the software.

3.The Licensee shall inform the Licensor of any utilisation by third parties and of any forwarding, 
promptly and in writing. In this context, he shall in particular disclose the name and address 
(including the e-mail address) of the purchaser or lessee, and shall disclose the contractual terms and 
conditions under which the sale or renting takes place.

4.The Licensee shall not allow utilisation of the software by third parties, or forwarding to third parties, 
if there is a suspicion that the third party may violate the terms of this contract regarding utilisation rights. 

e) Decompilation and programme modifications
1.Re-translations of the provided programme code into other code forms (decompilation) and other types of 
re-tracing the various production stages of the software (reverse engineering) are not permitted. Should 
interface information be required in order to establish interoperability of an independently compiled 
computer programme, this information can - provided this is technically feasible for the Licensor - be 
requested from the Licensor or a third party named by the Licensor, against payment of a nominal 
contribution to the costs. 

2.Translating, editing, arranging and other modifications of the software or parts thereof, as well as copying 
of the results thus obtained, shall only be permitted to the extent to which this is necessary in order for 
the Licensee to be able to use the software. 

§ 4 Defects in the software 
1.Should the software contain a defect, the Licensor shall, at the Licensee’s option, either rectify the defect 
or supply a product which is free of defects ("subsequent performance"). The Licensor may refuse the chosen type 
of subsequent performance, or subsequent performance as such, if this is only possible applying disproportionate 
expense. In cases of substitute deliveries, the Licensor shall be obligated to bear the necessary expenses, in 
particular the costs for the transmission of the software. If the Licensor provides the software free of defects 
for the purposes of subsequent performance, the defective software must be deleted completely from all of the 
Licensee’s data carriers, and may not be forwarded to third parties.

2.Should the Licensor not be prepared or able to provide subsequent performance, or should this be delayed beyond 
an adequate period of time for reasons within the Licensor’s scope of responsibility, or should subsequent 
performance fail for other reasons, the Licensee shall, subject to the statutory provisions, be entitled to assert 
his rights of withdrawal from the contract or reduction of the purchase price and damages. Subsequent performance 
shall only be deemed to have failed after three unsuccessful attempts. In cases of recourse pursuant to section 
478 BGB (German Civil Code), the provisions set out there shall apply.

3.The Licensee shall only be able to assert any claims going beyond this, in particular damage claims, including 
loss of profits or other financial damage incurred by the Licensee, subject to the provisions of this software 
licence agreement regarding the Licensor’s liability.

§ 5 Licensor’s liability

1.The Licensor shall have unlimited liability only for intent and gross negligence. The Licensor shall only be 
liable for cases of ordinary negligence if an obligation was violated, the compliance with which is of particular 
importance for achieving the purpose of the contract ("cardinal duty"). The liability sum for cases of ordinary 
negligence shall be restricted to the foreseeable damage, the occurrence of which is typical for this type of 
contract.

2.The Licensor shall be liable for cases of initial impossibility of performance only if he was aware of the 
obstacle to performance or if he failed to be aware of such obstacle due to gross negligence.

3.The period of limitation for claims for damages against the Licensor shall be one year from the statutory 
commencement of the period of limitation. 

4.The above restrictions of liability shall not apply to claims under the Produkthaftungsgesetz (German Product 
Liability Act), nor to damage incurred because of death, physical injuries or adverse health effects. 

5.Should the Licensee use the software in a manner which violates the contract, the Licensor’s liability shall 
be excluded. 

§ 6 Third Party Software

Additional copyright notices and license terms applicable to portions of the Software are set forth in the 
THIRDPARTYLICENSEREADME.html file.

§ 7 Miscellaneous
1.This licence agreement shall be governed by the law of the Federal Republic of Germany. The application of 
the "Uniform Law on the International Sale of Goods" and the "Uniform Law on the Conclusion of International 
Purchase Contracts" as well as the "United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods" 
are hereby excluded.

2.The place of jurisdiction for all disputes arising in commercial trade from the contractual relations, 
including court procedures regarding claims based on cheques, bills of exchange and documentary evidence 
(Scheckprozess, Wechselprozess and Urkundenprozess), shall be the Licensor’s registered place of business. 
The Licensor may also take legal action against the Licensee at the Licensee’s registered place of business.

3.The Licensee may not - except as otherwise provided in this software licence agreement - transfer individual 
rights under this contract, nor the contract as a whole, to third parties, unless with the expressed written 
consent of the Licensor. The Licensor shall grant this consent if the Licensee’s justified interests in the 
transfer of these rights outweigh the Licensor’s interests. 

4.Side agreements have not been concluded. Any modifications of this software licence agreement must be set out 
in written form. The same shall apply for the waiver of the written form requirement.

5.Should individual provisions in this licence agreement be or become invalid, whether entirely or in part, this 
shall not affect the validity of the remainder of the licence agreement.
