that exist in the Software and with respect to any runtime engines for the Software and any Driver
Interface Software that you include as part of or together with your Authorized Application, your
copyright notice will be understood as protecting NI or its licensor's copyrights in the Software and will
not be understood as meaning that you have any copyright in or with respect to any Software.

(ii) You may not use NI's name, logo, or trademarks to market your Authorized Application without NI's
express prior written permission.

(iii) If you distribute to any third parties your Authorized Application with Driver Interface Software or any
runtime engine for the Software, you must either pass through to your end users this Agreement or do
so subject to your own license agreement that is substantially in accordance with this Agreement and at
least as protective of NI as this Agreement.

(iv) The Authorized Application must not consist of or include any malicious, deceptive, or unlawful
programs.

C. Fees. You may distribute, deploy, or otherwise make available Authorized Applications without paying
additional fees to NI. Provided, however, if the Authorized Application was created utilizing any of the
software identified in NI's Deployment Licenses listing web page, which is currently located at
https://www.ni.com/en-us/support/documentation/supplemental/09/deployment-and-debug-licenses-for-ni-
software.html, or any similar successor listings, as such listings may be updated by NI from time to time, or
such other software as NI may from time to time designate (any of the foregoing a "Designated Deployment

applicable Authorized Application on, or has a valid Deployment License for, each computer on which the
Authorized Application will be used or (ii) obtain written distribution authorization from NI and, if required by
NI, pay to NI a per copy fee for each Authorized Application distributed, deployed, or otherwise made
available. In the case of any Driver Interface Software identified as being subject to the license verification or
distribution authorization requirements stated above, if the Authorized Application utilizes, calls, or otherwise
accesses any such Driver Interface Software, the Authorized Application will be deemed to have been
created utilizing such Driver Interface Software for purposes of this Section. Unless otherwise specified by
NI in writing, Designated Deployment Licenses are computer-based licenses and the home usage exception
does not apply to Designated Deployment Licenses.

contingent on you notifying NI in writing promptly upon your obtaining notice of such impending claim and your
fully cooperating with NI in preparing a defense. If you provide to NI the authority, assistance, and information NI
needs to defend or settle such claim, NI will pay any final award of damages or settlement with respect to such
claim and any expense you incur at NI's written request. NI will not be liable for a settlement made without its
prior written consent. If the Software is held to be infringing of the rights stated above in this Section and the use
of the Software is enjoined, NI will, or if NI believes the Software might be held to infringe a third party's
intellectual property rights NI may, at its option, (i) procure for you the right to use the Software; (ii) replace or
modify the Software with other software that does not infringe; or (iii) receive your return of the infringing
Software and refund to you the license fee payment made by you to NI for the Software. TO THE MAXIMUM

ANY REMEDY IN THIS AGREEMENT FAILS OF ITS ESSENTIAL PURPOSE; AND (iv) REGARDLESS OF
THE THEORY OR BASIS OF LIABILITY, AND WHETHER IN CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING WITHOUT
LIMITATION FOR NEGLIGENCE OR BREACH OF STATUTORY DUTY), STRICT LIABILITY,
MISREPRESENTATION, RESTITUTION, OR OTHERWISE.

You acknowledge that the applicable fees and prices reflect this allocation of risk. To the extent the foregoing
limitation of liability is not enforceable or fails of its essential purpose, except for liability for bodily injury or death
caused by the Software in the form provided by NI or any liability not capable of being excluded by applicable

B. This Agreement constitutes the complete agreement between you and NI regarding use of the Software and
supersedes any oral or written proposals, prior agreements, purchase orders, or any other communication
between you and NI relating to the subject matter of this Agreement. NI's applicable standard Terms and
Conditions of Sale, the current version of which is set forth at http://www.ni.com/legal/termsofsale, will apply
to any technical support services provided as part of Software Services and to any Training & Certification
Services; provided, however, as set forth herein the provisions of this Agreement may apply and control with
respect to any upgrades or updates or other Software that may be provided as part of or in connection with
any such services. No delay or omission by NI to exercise any right or power it has under this Agreement
will impair or be construed as a waiver of such right or power. Any waiver by NI of a term of this Agreement
must be in writing signed by a duly authorized representative of NI. The waiver by NI of any breach of any
provision hereof will not be construed to be a waiver of any succeeding breach of that provision or of any
breach of any other provision. No modification of this Agreement will be effective unless set forth in a writing
signed by a duly authorized representative of you and NI. The word "including" as used in this Agreement
will be understood as meaning "including without limitation". If you are unable to access the internet to view
any of the web pages referred to in this Agreement, you may request the information from your local NI sales
office.

C. If any action is brought by either party to this Agreement against the other regarding the subject matter
hereof, the prevailing party will be entitled to recover, in addition to any relief granted, reasonable attorneys'
fees and court costs.

D. If any provision of this Agreement is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be illegal, invalid or
unenforceable, then: (a) the remaining provisions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect; and
(b) the Parties agree that the court making such determination shall have the power to limit the provision, to
delete specific words or phrases, or to replace the provision with a provision that is legal, valid and
enforceable and that most closely approximates the original legal intent and economic impact of such
provision, and this Agreement shall be enforceable as so modified in respect of such jurisdiction. In the
event such court does not exercise the power granted to it as aforesaid, then such provision will be
ineffective solely as to such jurisdiction, and will be substituted (in respect of such jurisdiction) with a valid,
legal and enforceable provision that most closely approximates the original legal intent and economic impact
of such provision.

E. Software is, and Third Party Software and Source Code may be, subject to control under the U.S. Export
Administration Regulations (15 CFR Part 730 et. seq.), other applicable U.S. export control laws and
regulations, and applicable global export control laws and regulations, including, for products exported from
the European Union, Regulation (EU) 2021/821 of the European Parliament and of the Council. You
represent and warrant that you are not ineligible or otherwise restricted by US or applicable law to receive
any copies of the Software, Third Party Software, or Source Code. NI reserves the right not to ship or permit
downloading of the Software ordered or otherwise fulfill an order for licenses (including under a Volume
License Program or Enterprise Program) if, at any time, NI believes that such shipment or downloading of
such Software, Third Party Software, or Source Code or other fulfillment may violate U.S. or other applicable
export control laws. You agree that you will not export, re-export, or transfer any Software, Third Party
Software, or Source Code in violation of any
U.S. and applicable global export control laws and that you will not export, re-export, or transfer the
Software, Third Party Software, or Source Code by any means to (i) any person or entity on OFAC's List of
Specially Designated Nationals or on BIS's Denied Persons List, Entity List, or Unverified List, or any other
applicable restricted party list or (ii) any prohibited destination, entity, or individual without the required
export licenses or authorizations from the U.S. Government or other applicable export licensing authority.
For text of the relevant legal materials, see http://www.ni.com/legal/export-compliance.htm.

F. Software may include what is commonly referred to as 'open source' software. Under some of their
respective license terms and conditions, NI may be required to provide you with notice of the license terms
and attribution to the Third Party Software, in which case NI purposes to provide you with such information
(whether via the Software documentation or otherwise). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, use
of the open source software will be subject to the license terms and conditions applicable to such open
source software, to the extent required by the applicable licensor (which terms and conditions shall not
restrict the license rights granted to you hereunder), and to the extent any such license terms and conditions
grant you rights that are inconsistent with the limited rights granted to you in this Agreement, then such
rights in the applicable open source license shall take precedence over the rights and restrictions granted in
this Agreement, but solely with respect to such open source software. NI will comply with any valid written
request submitted by you to NI for exercising any rights you may have under such license terms and
conditions (but NI makes no commitment on how quickly it will respond to such request).

ADDENDUM B – Special License Types

Evaluation License; Pre-Release Software

If you have acquired an evaluation license, you may install and use the Software on one (1) computer in your
workplace for internal evaluation purposes only and only for the limited period of the evaluation term.

You may not distribute or transfer any applications you create with Software under an evaluation license. Any
application created with Software acquired under an evaluation license is not an Authorized Application.

You acknowledge and agree that the SOFTWARE IS EVALUATION ONLY AND MAY ALSO BE PRE-RELEASE
SOFTWARE. AS SUCH, THE SOFTWARE MAY NOT BE FULLY FUNCTIONAL AND YOU ASSUME THE ENTIRE
RISK AS TO THE RESULTS AND PERFORMANCE OF THE SOFTWARE. NI WILL NOT UPDATE THE
SOFTWARE, NOR WILL NI SUPPORT THE SOFTWARE. SOFTWARE PROVIDED UNDER AN EVALUATION
LICENSE IS PROVIDED WITHOUT WARRANTY OR OBLIGATION OF INDEMNITY ON NI. THE SOFTWARE
MAY CONTAIN CODE THAT WILL, AFTER A CERTAIN TIME PERIOD, DEACTIVATE THE SOFTWARE AND
RENDER THE SOFTWARE UNUSABLE, AND IT MAY DO SO WITHOUT WARNING. Upon such deactivation, this
Agreement will be considered terminated. NI may in its sole discretion terminate the evaluation license at any time. If
the Software consists of pre-release software and is also covered by a separate, written alpha/beta license (the "Beta
Agreement") between you and NI, the terms and conditions of the Beta Agreement, which are incorporated herein by
reference, will also apply to your use of the Software. In the event of a conflict between this Agreement and the Beta
Agreement, the terms of the Beta Agreement will control.

You agree to use reasonable efforts to provide feedback to NI regarding your use of the Software, including promptly
reporting to NI errors or bugs that you might find. Any such feedback you disclose to NI, including any changes or
suggested changes to NI's current or future products and services (collectively "Feedback"), will be received and
treated by NI on a non-confidential and unrestricted basis, notwithstanding any restrictive or proprietary legends to
the contrary accompanying or otherwise associated with the Feedback. You hereby grant to NI a worldwide, royalty-
free, non-exclusive, perpetual, and irrevocable license to use, copy, and modify Feedback for any purpose, including
incorporation or implementation of such Feedback into NI products or services, and to display, market, sublicense,
and distribute Feedback as incorporated or embedded in any product or service distributed or offered by NI. The
Feedback license set forth herein will survive expiration or termination of the Agreement.

Compile-Only License (Measurement Studio)

If you have acquired a Measurement Studio compile-only license, you must have also licensed a full version of
Measurement Studio under a separate license with NI. The Measurement Studio compile-only license allows you to
install the Measurement Studio Software on the number of computers in your workplace identified in the applicable
documentation provided to you by NI or its authorized affiliate, including on a network device and run concurrently,
provided that only your licensed applicable employee(s) may access or use the Measurement Studio Software on the
network device and only up to the number of licenses specified in the documentation. You may only use the
compile/build function of the Measurement Studio Software, and you may only perform that function on source code
for your Authorized Application that references the Measurement Studio libraries. In no event may you use the
Measurement Studio compile-only license for development, including writing code that creates a new instance of a
class defined in a Measurement Studio library or that calls a static method of a class defined in the Measurement
Studio library.

The home usage exception is not available for Measurement Studio under a compile-only license. Measurement
Studio under a compile-only license is not transferable.

Driver Interface Software

If the Software is or contains Driver Interface Software, you may use the Software for your internal development of
Authorized Applications. If you are a business or other entity, you may make and install a reasonable number of
copies of the Driver Interface Software, other than NI-VISA or NI-488.2, as may be reasonably required for your
internal development of Authorized Applications. You may not make additional copies of NI-VISA and NI-488.2
except for backup or archival purposes as expressly permitted in the Agreement or as expressly permitted by NI in
writing. If you received the Driver Interface Software from a third party with or as part of an Authorized Application,
then you may only use the Driver Interface Software with such Authorized Application.

Multiple Access License (NI-488.2 Software for GPIB-ENET)

If you have acquired a multiple access license, you may install and use the NI-488.2 Software on any number of
computers or storage devices in your workplace solely for the purpose of accessing Ethernet to GPIB controllers.

You may transfer the license to a third party in the same country in which you purchased the license, or within the
European Union if you purchased the license in the European Union, provided that you notify NI in writing of such
transfer, including the name and location of such third party; such third party accepts the terms and conditions of this
Agreement; and after such transfer you do not retain any copies of the Software, including any upgrades and updates
that you may have received, nor retain any of the written materials accompanying the Software. NI may, in its
discretion, charge you a fee for the transfer.

Concurrent Use License

If you have acquired a concurrent use license, you may install the Software on any or all computers at the physical
location to which NI initially delivered the Software ("Site"). The Software may be used by all of your employees at the
Site; provided, however, in no event may the number of computers running the Software at the same time exceed the
maximum number of licenses you have purchased. You agree that you will also use a NI-approved volume license
manager and the license file provided by NI that controls end-user access to the Software to ensure compliance with
the foregoing.

There is no home use exception for a concurrent use license. Concurrent use licenses are not transferrable.

Debug License

If you have acquired a debug license, you must have licensed the applicable software components (identified below
as "Software Components Required") under a separate named user license, computer based license, or VLP license
with NI, in which case your applicable employee(s) may now, under the debug license, install such software
components on one (1) additional target production computer for each debug license acquired and for debug
purposes only or, in the case of a concurrent debug license, in accordance with the use restrictions applicable to
concurrent licenses and for debug purposes only.

the applicable components must be used on the same target production computer. In no event may you use
components subject to a debug license for developing new programs (e.g., test sequences/modules, virtual
instruments). Further, if you acquire any upgrade to the applicable software, your existing debug license cannot be
used with such upgrade. Rather, you must acquire a separate, "upgraded" debug license from NI for use with such
upgrade.

There is no home usage exception for debug licenses.

With the exception of concurrent debug licenses, you may transfer the debug license to a third party in the same
country in which you purchased the license or within the European Union if you purchased the license in the

party; such third party accepts the terms and conditions of this Agreement; and after such transfer you do not retain
any copies of the Software, including any upgrades and updates that you may have received, nor retain any of the
written materials accompanying the Software. NI may, in its discretion, charge you a fee for the transfer of the
license.
ADDENDUM C - Volume License Program Terms

Volume License Program ("VLP"). The VLP is a program to assist customers in managing their licenses. The
following terms apply to the VLP.

1. The quote you obtained from NI or its authorized affiliate regarding the VLP and the VLP Startup Kit ("VLP
Documentation") is incorporated into this Agreement. In the event of a conflict between the terms and conditions
of this Agreement and the VLP Documentation, the terms and conditions of this Agreement will control.

2. Term. The VLP will be effective the date that NI sends the VLP Startup Kit to you ("VLP Effective Date"). The
initial term of the VLP will start on the VLP Effective Date and continue for a period of one (1) year (the "Initial
VLP Term"). You may renew the VLP for additional one (1) year periods (the Initial VLP Term and each such
renewal term each referred to herein as a "VLP Term").

3. Software under the VLP may be used by your employees only on those computers located at the location to
which NI delivers the Software unless otherwise specified in the VLP Documentation (the "Site"). The definition
of "Site" will also include all of your locations located within the same country as the Site. In addition, (i) if your
Site is located in North or South America, then all of your locations within North and South America will be
considered in the same country; (ii) if your Site is located in Europe, Middle East, India, or Africa (including
Russia and Mongolia), then any of your locations within the foregoing regions will be considered in the same
country; and (iii) if your Site is located in Asia Pacific, then all of your locations in the region will be considered
located in the same country. If you purchase a global VLP, then all of your locations worldwide will be
considered in the same country as the Site; provided, however, that the Software must be managed from the
region to which NI delivers the Software. Your use of the Software under the VLP will, at all times during the
VLP Term and thereafter, be subject to all terms and conditions set forth in the Agreement regarding the specific
type of license you have acquired under the VLP (i.e. named user, computer-based, or concurrent).

4. You must acquire and maintain during the VLP Term the Subscription or the Software Services for each
individual Software license identified in the VLP Documentation and for which NI makes such Subscription or
Software Services available. Software Services will be described in the VLP Documentation. NI reserves the
right to restrict Software Service to the then most current version of the Software that is commercially available.
You understand that NI may not make available Software Service or Subscription for all Software available under
the VLP. Unless otherwise agreed to by NI in writing, you must maintain during the VLP Term a minimum of five
(5) licenses of the same Term type to a version of a single NI software product that is considered by NI to be a
development version.

5. You must designate an individual in your organization who is responsible for distributing and overseeing the
installation and use of the Software, including use of any master installation media and installation and
maintenance of any approved volume license manager, ("Software Administrator") for each Site. You must
promptly notify NI in writing of any changes to a Software Administrator.

6. NI will deliver the master installation for the Software and, if provided for in the applicable quotation from NI or its
authorized affiliate, make available NI's volume license manager to the Software Administrator(s) for internal
installation and use by your employees. Software documentation is provided in electronic form only and comes
with the master installation for the Software.

7. You are responsible for ensuring that an Approved Volume License Manager, together with the most current
license file provided by NI that controls end-user access to the Software (to the extent NI has made the Software
compatible with an Approved Volume License Manager) is in use at all times, during the term of the VLP and
thereafter, with the Software. An "Approved Volume License Manager" means NI's computer software for
controlling end user access to the Software and that generates applicable usage compliance information ("NI
VLM"); FlexNet software; or any other third party software approved in writing by NI for controlling end user
access to the Software. If the Approved Volume License Manager is the NI VLM or if NI makes documentation
available for the applicable Approved Volume License Manager, such Approved Volume License Manager must
be installed and used in accordance with the documentation provided by NI.

8. If you have existing computer-based or named user licenses for the Software that are to be covered by the VLP,
you must notify NI in writing of the product, platform, and serial number information for each such license. Each
such covered license and the individual serial number for each such license will, as of the VLP Effective Date, no
longer be in effect and will be superseded by the licenses within the VLP, which will have a single, common
serial number. You must provide NI with any information reasonably requested by NI in order to establish and
administer the VLP. You understand that not all available existing Software is coverable by a VLP.
9. Concurrent Use License. If you have obtained a concurrent use license under the VLP, you will be bound by the
terms for concurrent use licenses, except that the “Site” for the licenses shall be as defined in this Addendum for
licenses under a VLP. If you have purchased a global concurrent license, then all of your locations worldwide will
be considered in the same country as the Site.

10. You acknowledge and agree that in no event may your use of the Software under the VLP exceed the maximum
total number of licenses set forth in the VLP Documentation in addition to any licenses that may be added to the
VLP after the VLP Effective Date and any licenses available through the "Overdraft" feature. You agree to pay for
licenses accessed through the Overdraft feature.

11. Activity Compliance Logs. Upon request, you agree to provide an activity compliance log ("Activity Compliance
Log") for each Site to NI promptly. The Activity Compliance Log must be in a format acceptable to NI.

12. Renewals. Upon renewal of the VLP, NI may request you to provide a current Activity Compliance Log to NI to be
delivered by you within thirty (30) days within such request. NI or its authorized affiliate will provide you with a
quote for any fees for additional VLP licenses added during the VLP Term, including through the "Overdraft"
feature, that are applicable ("Additional VLP Fees"), and any subscription or software service fees for VLP licenses
that you request for renewing the VLP Term ("VLP Renewal Fees"). You must promptly notify NI if the information
in the Activity Compliance Log regarding the number of VLP licenses in use changes following your submission,
and NI reserves the right to revise the VLP Renewal Fees to reflect any additional VLP licenses used and not
reflected in the applicable Activity Compliance Log that you provided to NI at the time you renewed. IF, PRIOR TO
THE END OF THE THEN CURRENT VLP TERM, YOU DO NOT ISSUE A PURCHASE ORDER FOR THE
SUBSCRIPTION AND SOFTWARE SERVICES AND ANY ADDITIONAL VLP FEES THAT ARE DUE, (I) THE
VLP WILL AUTOMATICALLY TERMINATE AT THE END OF THE CURRENT VLP TERM AND (II) ALL
SUBSCRIPTION LICENSES OF THE VLP WILL AUTOMATICALLY AND IMMIDIATELLY TERMINATE AND (III)
ALL SOFTWARE SERVICES FOR THE VLP WILL AUTOMATICALLY AND IMMEDIATELY TERMINATE AT THE
END OF THE THEN CURRENT VLP TERM.

13. Purchase Orders; Invoices. You must submit purchase orders to NI or its authorized affiliate as follows.

i. for initial activation of the VLP: in the amount specified in the applicable written quotation from NI or its
authorized affiliate for initial activation of the VLP license and the initial annual user fee for Subscription
and/or Software Services within the time-frame specified in the quote provided to you

ii. for each renewal term: in the amount of VLP Renewal Fees and any Additional VLP Fees prior to the end of
the then current VLP Term

14. Subscription fees and Software Services fees are charged on an annual basis. Additional VLP Fees will be pro-
rated on a monthly basis, based on the month of the VLP Term in which the Software under such VLP license
was first used or such shorter basis as NI may designate.

15. THE SOFTWARE AND THE APPROVED VOLUME LICENSE MANAGER MAY CONTAIN CODE THAT WILL,
FOLLOWING TERMINATION OF THE VLP, DEACTIVATE YOUR ABILITY TO USE THE SOFTWARE UNDER
THE VLP. NI MAY ATTEMPT TO PROVIDE YOU WITH AN UPDATED LICENSE FILE, BUT IT IS YOUR
RESPONSIBILITY TO OBTAIN SUCH LICENSE FILE FROM NI AND TO INSTALL AND USE THE LICENSE
FILE AS SOON AS POSSIBLE AFTER DELIVERY OF SUCH LICENSE FILE, BUT IN NO EVENT NO LATER
THAN SIXTY (60) DAYS AFTER THE TERMINATION OF THE VLP. Upon termination of the VLP, you may
continue to use the perpetual VLP licenses in effect and for which you have paid the required fees to NI or its
authorized affiliate prior to the date of termination (the "Surviving VLP Licenses"), provided that all such use is
conducted with an Approved Volume License Manager and otherwise pursuant to the terms and conditions of
the Agreement. IN NO EVENT MAY YOU, FOLLOWING THE TERMINATION OF THE VLP (a) INCREASE
THE NUMBER OF THE SURVIVING VLP LICENSES, OR (b) USE SUBSCRIPTION-BASED VLP LICENSES,
OR (c) USE DISCONNECTED LICENSES INSTALLED UNDER A PRIOR, EXPIRED TERM OF THE VLP. .
ANY REACTIVATION OF THE VLP FOLLOWING ITS TERMINATION WILL BE AT THE SOLE DISCRETION
OF NI AND MAY BE SUBJECT TO REACTIVATION FEES, AND THE VLP EFFECTIVE DATE THEREAFTER
WILL BE THE DATE THAT THE VLP IS REACTIVATED BY NI.

16. You may obtain individual serial numbers for any of the VLP licenses or Surviving VLP Licenses. There may be a
charge for conversion. Unless at the time of termination, no more than four (4) such conversions may occur per
calendar year.
17. Software under a VLP license or a Surviving VLP License is non-transferable and you may not, without the prior
written consent of NI or its authorized affiliate, distribute or otherwise provide the Software to any third party or to
any of your sites or facilities not expressly identified in the applicable documents from NI.

18. If you generate and install individual software licenses which are not permanently connected to an Approved
License Manager (“Disconnected Licenses”), then Disconnected Licenses shall be subject to all the terms and
conditions set forth in this Agreement. The number of Disconnected Licenses shall not exceed the number of
licenses identified in the VLP Documentation. If you reconnect any Disconnected license, you must immediately
remove from the client the respective Disconnected Licenses. You must remove any Disconnected Licenses to
Software from the client that you installed under a prior, expired program within thirty (30) days of the start of the
VLP and replace such licenses with Disconnected Licenses that expire no more than thirty (30) days beyond the
end of the then current VLP Term.
ADDENDUM D - Enterprise Program Terms

Enterprise Program ("EP"). The following terms apply to the EP.

1. NI or its authorized affiliate and you will enter into NI Enterprise Program documentation ("EP Documentation")
that, among other things, identifies the Software items that are covered under the EP; the types and maximum
number of your licenses for such Software during the term of the EP; the types and maximum number of any
licenses that you will obtain on expiration of the EP term; any of your pre-existing licenses that will be converted
to licenses under your EP ("EP Pre-Existing Licenses") and any Software Services that are included. The EP
