MICROSOFT .NET PORTABLE CLASS LIBRARY REFERENCE ASSEMBLIES – 4.6

based on where you live, one of its affiliates) and you. Please read
them. They apply to the software named above. The terms also apply to
any Microsoft
•   updates,
•   supplements,
•   Internet-based services, and
•   support services
for this software, unless other terms accompany those items. If so,
those terms apply.
BY USING THE SOFTWARE, YOU ACCEPT THESE TERMS. IF YOU DO NOT ACCEPT
THEM, DO NOT USE THE SOFTWARE.
IF YOU COMPLY WITH THESE LICENSE TERMS, YOU HAVE THE PERPETUAL RIGHTS
BELOW.
1.   INSTALLATION AND USE RIGHTS. You may install and use any number of

2.   ADDITIONAL LICENSING REQUIREMENTS AND/OR USE RIGHTS.
a.   Distributable Code. You may distribute the software in developer
tool programs you develop, to enable customers of your programs to
develop portable libraries for use with any device or operating system,
if you comply with the terms below.
i.   Right to Use and Distribute. The software is “Distributable Code.”
•   Distributable Code. You may copy and distribute the object code form
of the software.
•   Third Party Distribution. You may permit distributors of your
programs to copy and distribute the Distributable Code as part of those
programs.
ii.   Distribution Requirements. For any Distributable Code you

•   add significant primary functionality to it in your programs;
•   require distributors and your customers to agree to terms that
protect it at least as much as this agreement;
•   display your valid copyright notice on your programs; and

programs.
iii.   Distribution Restrictions. You may not

suggests your programs come from or are endorsed by Microsoft;
•   include Distributable Code in malicious, deceptive or unlawful
programs; or
•   modify or distribute the Distributable Code so that any part of it

3.   SCOPE OF LICENSE. The software is licensed, not sold. This
agreement only gives you some rights to use the software. Microsoft
reserves all other rights. Unless applicable law gives you more rights
despite this limitation, you may use the software only as expressly
permitted in this agreement. In doing so, you must comply with any
technical limitations in the software that only allow you to use it in
certain ways. You may not
•   work around any technical limitations in the software;

way and for any purpose. You also give to third parties, without charge,
any patent rights needed for their products, technologies and services
to use or interface with any specific parts of a Microsoft software or
service that includes the feedback. You will not give feedback that is
subject to a license that requires Microsoft to license its software or
documentation to third parties because we include your feedback in
them. These rights survive this agreement.
5.   TRANSFER TO A THIRD PARTY. The first user of the software may
transfer it, and this agreement, directly to a third party. Before the
transfer, that party must agree that this agreement applies to the
transfer and use of the software. The first user must uninstall the

updates, Internet-based services and support services that you use, are
the entire agreement for the software and any support services we
provide.
9.   APPLICABLE LAW.

Washington state law governs the interpretation of this agreement and
applies to claims for breach of it, regardless of conflict of laws
principles. The laws of the state where you live govern all other

competition laws, and in tort.
b.   Outside the United States. If you acquired the software in any

THE RISK OF USING IT. MICROSOFT GIVES NO EXPRESS WARRANTIES, GUARANTEES
OR CONDITIONS. YOU MAY HAVE ADDITIONAL CONSUMER RIGHTS OR STATUTORY
GUARANTEES UNDER YOUR LOCAL LAWS WHICH THIS AGREEMENT CANNOT CHANGE.
TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED UNDER YOUR LOCAL LAWS, MICROSOFT EXCLUDES THE
IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE
