| 1 | +Quantum Leaps Commercial Licenses |
| 2 | + |
| 3 | +Copyright (C) 2005 Quantum Leaps, LLC <https://www.state-machine.com> |
| 4 | + |
| 5 | +Quantum Leaps commercial licenses are traditinal closed-source, paid-for |
| 6 | +licenses designed for licensees interested in retaining the proprietary |
| 7 | +status of their code. |
| 8 | + |
| 9 | +The Quantum Leaps commercial licenses expressly supersede the GPL open source |
| 10 | +license. This means that when you license the QP/C or QP/C++ Real-Time |
| 11 | +Embedded Frameworks under a Quantum Leaps commercial license, you specifically |
| 12 | +do not use the software under the open source license and therefore you are |
| 13 | +not subject to any of its terms. |
| 14 | + |
| 15 | +Quantum Leaps commercial licensing options are described below: |
| 16 | + |
| 17 | + |
| 18 | +Single Product License |
| 19 | +---------------------- |
| 20 | +Single Product License allows a given company (“Licensee”) to embed the |
| 21 | +specified type(s) of the QP Real-Time Embedded Framework(s) into one end- |
| 22 | +product of the Licensee (Single Product). Licensee can distribute/sell an |
| 23 | +unlimited number of units of the Single Product (royalty-free licensing), |
| 24 | +for the life of the Single Product. A different Single Product license is |
| 25 | +required for each different end product (i.e. model) even if the end-product |
| 26 | +is in the same family as a previously licensed end product. This license |
| 27 | +is specific to the Licensee and the name and model of the Signle Product, |
| 28 | +which needs to be defined in the license. The general rule we apply is: |
| 29 | + |
| 30 | +If you consider it a separate product…so do we! |
| 31 | + |
| 32 | +Volume discounts are offered if several Single Products are licensed at once |
| 33 | +with one license agreement. |
| 34 | + |
| 35 | + |

| 41 | +can distribute/sell an unlimited number of units of each of those products |
| 42 | +(royalty-free licensing), for the life of the end-products within the |
| 43 | +Product Line. Product Line License applies to all end-products that do |
| 44 | +similar functions within the same Product Line. |
