integrated with Licensee software products only to Licensee’s authorized
distributors, resellers, and others in Licensee’s distribution chain for
Licensee product and end users and grant to such third party a sublicense to use
the Software under a written, legally enforceable agreement that has the effect
of protecting the Software and the rights of NVIDIA under terms no less
restrictive than this Agreement.
Limitations: Unless otherwise authorized in the Agreement, Licensee shall not
otherwise assign, sublicense, lease, or in any other way transfer or disclose
Software to any third party. Licensee agrees not to disassemble, decompile or
reverse engineer the Object Code or use or modify any of the Licensed Materials
