The terms of the Non-Commercial End User License Agreement must be agreed to:

QNX Non-Commercial End User License Agreement The software and related documentation that you are about to access (the "Software", as further defined below) is offered by QNX Software Systems International Corporation ("QSS"), 175 Terence Matthews Crescent, Kanata, Ontario, Canada K2M 1W8, for your use in accordance with the terms and conditions below. By answering "I ACCEPT" during the download, installation or activation of this Software, you represent that you have read, understand and agree to be bound by the terms and conditions of this QNX Non-Commercial End User License Agreement (the "EULA"). Background QSS has developed and licenses a general purpose real-time operating system known as the QNX (R) Neutrino (R) RTOS (the "Neutrino RTOS"). Its microkernel architecture provides an extensible operating system framework based on the foundational components of the Core OS technology. Additional operating system services are implemented by plugging in other modules (e.g., networking, file systems, graphics, browsers, etc.). These software products are available as part of the base QNX Neutrino RTOS Runtime, the Mass Storage Filesystem Technology, the Advanced Runtime Module, or the optional Aviage (TM) Middleware Products (collectively, the "QNX Runtime Products"). When modified or configured to operate on target hardware, the Neutrino RTOS provides a microkernel operating system with advanced memory protection, distributed processing, symmetric multiprocessing, support for multiple APIs, a dynamically upgradeable architecture, and industry-leading real-time performance. QSS also offers a related set of software development tools known as the QNX Momentics (R) Development Tools ("Momentics Tools"). Developers use the Momentics Tools to modify or configure QNX Runtime Products and to develop Neutrino RTOS applications. The Momentics Tools include compilers, debuggers, libraries, headers, utilities, sample code, test suites, etc., within an integrated development environment based on the open Eclipse IDE framework. The base QNX Neutrino RTOS Runtime, the Mass Storage Filesystem Technology and the Advanced Runtime Module are initially delivered with the Momentics Tools and are licensed for development purposes under this EULA. Aviage Middleware Products are delivered separately and may incorporate additional license terms and conditions. Collectively the QNX Runtime Products (including any optionally-licensed Aviage Middleware Products) and the Momentics Tools are known as the "QNX Development Suite" throughout this EULA. More detailed product information is available in the applicable QNX Development Suite License Guide at http://licensing.qnx.com/license-guide/ ("License Guide") a copy of which has also been included in the Software installation media (i.e., on the CD, or in the ISO image in the case of downloads) and is incorporated herein by this reference. QSS licenses the QNX Development Suite for commercial development activities. A QNX Commercial Software License Agreement ("CSLA") allows you to develop commercial QNX Runtime Product- or Momentics Tool- based applications and QNX Runtime Product derivative works, on your own or with technical support or custom engineering assistance from QSS (see http://licensing.qnx.com/services/). Commercial development licenses for Aviage Middleware Products are offered under the CSLA on a project-specific basis. These commercial licenses allow you to charge fees for your QNX Development Suite-based products or services, provided that you obtain a distribution license for any royalty bearing QNX Runtime Product components that you want to offer in their original form or as part of your derivative works (see http://licensing.qnx.com/oem-distribution/). Contact an authorized QSS sales representative for more information. Certain components of the QNX Development Suite are available from QSS under the terms of the Apache License, Version 2.0 ("Apache 2.0"), the Eclipse Public License ("EPL"), or other open source licenses. All of the open source components in the QNX Development Suite, and the licenses to which they are subject, are identified in the License Guide and the corresponding Third Party License Terms List available at http://licensing.qnx.com/third-party-terms/ ("Third Party Terms") a copy of which have also been included in the Software installation media and is incorporated herein by this reference.
