2.2 Without limitation of any other provision contained herein, You will be liable for all failures of any other Authorized Users to comply with the terms, conditions, requirements and limitations set forth in this License Agreement.
2.3 This License Agreement is a license of the SDK and not an assignment. You acknowledge and agree that, as between You and LGE, LGE owns the SDK, any Update or Upgrade thereto and all Intellectual Property Rights therein. LGE reserves all rights not expressly granted to You hereunder.
2.4 You acknowledge and agree that an Application must satisfy LGE's technical standards before it can be tested on the relevant LGE product pursuant to LGE's internal quality assessment process. LGE reserves the right to reject any Application at its sole discretion. LGE's testing of an Application shall not be construed as LGE's approval on the Application on any aspect. If a material change is made to the Application, You must submit the revised version for LGE's approval.
2.5 Except to the extent required by applicable law or third party licenses, neither You nor any other Authorized User shall copy (except for back-up purposes), modify, adapt, redistribute, decompile, decrypt, disassemble or reverse engineer the SDK or create derivative works of the SDK or any part of the SDK.

2.6 Use, reproduction and distribution of components of the SDK licensed under an OSS license, if any, are governed solely by the terms of that OSS license and not this License Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, You shall ensure that Applications developed hereunder do not incorporate any OSS in a manner which would cause any non-OSS portions of the SDK to be subject to any OSS licensing requirements.
2.7 You agree that the form and nature of the SDK may change without prior notice to You and that future versions of the SDK may be incompatible with Applications developed on previous versions of the SDK. You agree that LGE may stop (permanently or temporarily) providing the SDK, or any features within the SDK to You or to users generally, at LGE's sole discretion, without prior notice to You.

2.12 You acknowledge and agree that the SDK is not designed, intended, or certified for use in components of systems or Application intended for the operation of weapons, weapons systems, nuclear installations, means of mass transportation, aviation, medical or life-support computers or equipment (including resuscitation equipment and surgical implants), pollution control, hazardous substances management, or for any other dangerous Application in which the failure of the SDK could create a situation where personal injury or death may occur. You understand that use of the SDK in such Applications is fully at Your risk.

You acknowledge that Your use of such third party applications, data, content or resources may be subject to a separate agreement between You and the relevant third party. In such case, this License Agreement shall not affect Your legal relationship with such third party(ies).
4.2 If the Application is distributed, licensed or otherwise offered under the white-labeling of a third party, LGE may object to such distribution if LGE reasonably believes that the distribution of the Application cause adverse effect on LGE's business and upon such objection, You shall immediately cease to distribute the Application and discuss in good faith to find an alternative which will be beneficial to both Parties.

THE SDK AND ANY RELATED SERVICES ARE PROVIDED "AS IS", WITH ALL FAULTS AND WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND. TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, LGE HEREBY DISCLAIMS ALL WARRANTIES AND CONDITIONS WITH RESPECT TO THE SDK AND ANY RELATED SERVICES, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING ALL WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE (EVEN IF LGE HAS BEEN MADE AWARE OF SUCH PURPOSE), TITLE, NON-INTERFERENCE, NON-INFRINGEMENT AND ACCURACY.

11. Exclusions and Limitations.
11.1 SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OF CERTAIN WARRANTIES OR THE LIMITATION OR EXCLUSION OF LIABILITY FOR INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES. ACCORDINGLY, SOME OF THE ABOVE LIMITATIONS OF SECTIONS 9 AND 10 MAY NOT BE APPLICABLE TO YOU. IN SUCH JURISDICTIONS, THE LIABILITY OF LGE SHALL BE LIMITED TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW.
12. Release and Waiver.

If You are a California resident, You waive Your rights under California Civil Code §1542, which states, "A general release does not extend to claims which the creditor does not know or suspect to exist in his favor at the time of executing the release, which if known by him must have materially affected his settlement with the debtor." You understand that any fact relating to any matter covered by the foregoing release may be found to be other than now believed to be true and You accept and assume the risk of such possible differences in fact. In addition, You waive and relinquish any and all similar rights and benefits which You may have under any other laws, to the fullest extent permitted by law.
13. Confidentiality.
13.1 You shall not, without the prior written consent of LGE obtained in each instance, disclose any Confidential Information of LGE to any person or entity; provided, however, that any disclosure by You of LGE's Confidential Information as and to the extent required to comply with judicial or administrative process shall not be deemed a breach of this License Agreement.
14. Assignment.
14.1 You shall not have the right to assign this License Agreement or any of Your rights hereunder, or to delegate any of Your obligations hereunder, whether in whole or in part; and any assignment or delegation in contravention of this section 14.1 shall be deemed void. LGE shall have the right to assign this License Agreement and any and all of its rights hereunder, and to delegate any and all of its obligations hereunder, to any third party.
15. Governing Law
15.1 This License Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the Republic of Korea without regard to conflict of law principles. All disputes, controversies and disagreements between the Parties arising out of or related to this License Agreement shall be exclusively submitted for, and finally settled by, arbitration. The arbitration shall be conducted by three (3) arbitrators exclusively in Seoul, the Republic of Korea, in accordance with the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the Korean Commercial Arbitration Board. The Parties waive any objection that might be made on the ground that such venue may be in an inconvenient forum. The award rendered by the arbitrators shall be final and binding upon the Parties. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 15.1, in the event You infringe upon or violate the intellectual property rights of LGE or breach any of Your confidentiality obligations hereunder, LGE shall have the right to seek immediate injunctive or other equitable relief (or an equivalent type of urgent legal relief) in a court of competent jurisdiction.
16. Miscellaneous.
16.1 This License Agreement sets forth the entire understanding and agreement of the Parties related to the subject matter hereof and supersedes any and all oral and/or written agreements and understandings between the Parties related to the subject matter hereof. If any provision hereof is held for any reason to be unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, such holding will not affect the validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions hereof. The failure or delay of LGE to exercise any right under this License Agreement shall not be deemed a waiver of any such right and shall not prevent LGE from demanding full and exact compliance with this License Agreement. Section headings used in this License Agreement are for the purpose of convenience only and shall not have any legal significance in interpreting the provisions hereof.
