4. Distributing Media to Your Users

You may acquire the quantity of media as is necessary to distribute the Software to your Users. All media must be acquired from a Microsoft approved fulfillment source. You may also copy the media acquired from a Microsoft approved fulfillment source for your faculty and staff Users.

Your reseller can identify products for which the media contains ORW. All media for your student Users must be acquired from a Microsoft approved fulfillment source.

5. Warranties and Other Obligations of Microsoft

Limited product warranty

We warrant that each product will perform substantially in accordance with its Microsoft-published user documentation. This warranty is valid for a period of 90 days from the date you first run a given version of the Software from any computer or similar device. Any warranties imposed by law concerning the products are limited to the same 90-day period. The warranty is not applicable if failure of the product has resulted from accident, abuse or misapplication. If you notify us within the warranty period that a product does not meet this warranty, then we will, at our option, either

1. return the price paid or
2. repair or replace the product.

This is your exclusive remedy for breach of this warranty.

6. Transfers

You may not transfer your rights under this License Agreement, except as provided below.

1. Transfers to Departing Students
   If you elect the Student-Owned PC Option under your Campus Agreement, you may at anytime during the term of such agreement transfer the right to run the Software from any student-owned device to the student that owns such device upon such student's departure from your institution or school. This is known as the Departing Student option. You must provide each such student with a Campus Agreement Student License Confirmation in the form attached to your Campus Agreement. In addition, you must secure from each such student their acceptance of the terms and conditions of the Campus Agreement Student License Confirmation and this License Agreement. Upon acceptance of such terms and conditions, their right to run the Software identified in the License Confirmation becomes perpetual.
2. Transfers of perpetual rights
   If you exercise the buy-out option, you may transfer licenses for which you have received License Confirmations pursuant to your Campus or School Agreement to an unaffiliated third party in connection with a merger, consolidation, or divestiture. For all other transfers of perpetual licenses, our written consent is required. You must transfer the relevant License Confirmations or, if transferring a portion of the licenses, you must provide a photocopy of the relevant License Confirmations, along with a statement identifying the licenses being transferred. In addition, you must secure from the entity to which you are transferring the acceptance of the terms and conditions of this License Agreement, and their acknowledgment of the fact that, notwithstanding Section 5 above, products for which licenses are transferred pursuant to this section 6(b) are transferred "as is," without warranty of any kind.
3. Requirements for all permitted transfers
   Upgrade licenses may be transferred only if you also transfer the qualifying license. You may transfer a license for an operating system product only as part of the sale or transfer of the computer system on which the product was first installed. Licenses cannot be transferred on a short-term basis.

7. License Grants

We hereby grant you the right to use the Software as provided in Exhibit A to this License Agreement. We may need to change the product use rights identified on Exhibit A during the term of your Campus Agreement or School Agreement to accommodate the addition or deletion of Software products or the introduction of new versions of existing Software products. We may do so at any time, and from time to time. No such change will ever retroactively alter the terms under which your Users may use a copy of a Software product previously installed. For purposes of Exhibit A, (a) your Departing Students are deemed permitted transferees; and (b) Microsoft Office Standard and Microsoft Office Professional, Microsoft FrontPage, Microsoft Visual Studio Professional Edition and Microsoft Project (and successor products) and Microsoft Press products are in the Applications Product Pool, Microsoft Windows and Microsoft Windows NT Workstation (and successor products) are in the Systems Product Pool, and Microsoft BackOffice CAL is in the Server Product Pool.
