REQUEST FOR PERMISSION TO RE-DISTRIBUTE
If you are an Amiga Dealer or Re-seller and would like to re-distribute the
MFC diskette please print out the permission form below, sign it and send
it to Redmond Simonsen, VP, at MicroBotics, Inc.. If you publish an on-disk
magazine or magazine-with-disk or a collection of re-distributable software
or any other tangible and/or for-profit distribution, you must, in addition
to signing the form below, send a sample of your distribution and the fees
charged before permission can be granted. If you are a hardware or software
third-party and wish to include some or all of the MFC with your product,
there is an licensing fee schedule for doing so. Please send a request for
a copy of this schedule to Redmond Simonsen, VP, at MicroBotics, Inc.
Dear Amiga Re-seller:
If you'd like to re-distribute our freeware versions of RDPrep and MBRTest-2
(collectively known as the MicroBotics Freeware Collection or MFC) all we
ask is that you agree to the following straighforward, common-sense
conditions return to us a signed copy of this page:
1. Any re-distribution of MicroBotics Freeware Collection (also known as
the MFC) must be complete and unaltered as originally delivered from
MicroBotics. You must endeavor to use the most recent version of the MFC
software made available from MicroBotics.
2. If re-distributed on diskette, the diskette must be an exact duplicate
of the master received from MicroBotics and may not be altered or added to
in any way. No other software may share the diskette. The diskette label
must carry the same text on it as the master and must have the MicroBotics
copyright notice. You must frequently and regularly virus check your
duplicated diskettes to avoid promulgating a computer virus on the MFC
diskette.
3. If re-distributed on a hard disk, the MFC must be placed in a file
system drawer labeled "MicroBotics.Freeware". No other software may share
this subdirectory. The organization and contents of files inside the
MicroBotics.Freeware drawer must be identical to that found on the MFC
diskette.
4. The MFC must be re-distributed free of all charges with the exception
that if distributed via diskette, a $5.00 (US) maximum charge may be
imposed for media, postage and handling (we urge this charge not be imposed
inasmuch as we are giving you a free license for very valuable software and
it is in your best interest to deliver completely free of charge). Non-USA
dealers or distributors may translate that charge into their currency at
prevailing exchange rates. If distributed on a hard disk or removable mass
storage media, absolutely no charge may be made for the MFC software.
5. The MFC may not be packaged with other third party peripheral hardware
without explicit written permission from MicroBotics for each specific
case.
6. If placed on a dealer or distributor BBS system, the MFC must either be
presented as a single archive with the same organization and contents as
the MFC diskette, or the separate freeware program archives for MBRTest-2
and RDPrep as posted by MicroBotics on CompuServe and BIX will be used. The
most recent of such publicly available archives will be used in all cases.
7. No additional support nor any warranty of suitability or fitness is
offered by MicroBotics for this free re-distribution. All end-user
interactions or questions flowing from the free re-distribution of the MFC
will be handled by the re-distributor and not by MicroBotics.
8. This grant of limited rights to re-distribute the MFC will in no way be
interpreted as a weakening or dilution of MicroBotics, Inc.'s interest and
rights in the MFC. The right to re-distribute may be withdrawn or modified
unilaterally by MicroBotics, Inc. at any time it so chooses.
Amiga Re-seller Statement:
I agree to the abide by the above conditions if I should choose to
re-distribute the MicroBotics Freeware Collection.
