You may not remove any notice in the custom templates specifying this limitation or grant a sub-license to any other entity to use the custom templates or derivatives of the templates unless the entity has also licensed the product.
4. DISTRIBUTION OF CREATED WORK a) Intent of these restrictions. The various Revolution products allow users to create powerful and useful software for others. The level of utility of created works that can be made is related to the respective Revolution license that the user holds, and those differences are reflected in the relative price of those licenses. The general purpose of the restrictions in this section is twofold; to prevent distributed Created Software conferring on users who do not hold a Revolution license the ability to create software equivalent to what can normally only be created by holders of a Revolution license; to prevent distributed created works conferring on holders of a lesser Revolution license the ability to create software equivalent to what can be normally only be created by holders of a greater Revolution license. b) Permission is hereby granted to distribute your Created Software by any method to anyone, subject the terms of this Section 4 and this Agreement.
c) You may use the Licensed Edition to create stacks or files for your own use or to give to others either free of charge or for a fee under the terms of this Clause 4 ("Created Software") except if you purchased an Educational Edition, where you may distribute stacks but may not charge for them.
d) If the version of Revolution you licensed did not include Standalone Builder: you may not distribute Created Software as any form of standalone executable application; nor may you distribute Created Software with any standalone application specifically designed to open any stack file ("Player") other than the Player supplied by Runtime Revolution Limited ("Revolution Player").
e) You acknowledge that additional license requirements apply to distribution with the Revolution Player, or using Revolution Online ("Revolution Online"), RevSelect Projects, and RevSelect service. f) Copyright notices, as defined in Appendix A, must appear wherever any other copyright or trademark notice appears in any Created Software distributed as a standalone executable, its documentation, advertising, and other product-related literature. g) When publishing Created Software with the Revolution Player application, you may include the complete Revolution Player archive, either compressed or decompressed, in its entirety; you are expressly prohibited from making any modifications including but not limited to the Copyright notices, License Agreement, or executable file. Alternatively you may provide a link, anywhere and to anyone, to download the Revolution Player directly from our web site. h) You may not distribute software either as a stack file or as an executable standalone application that attempts to alter the file format of any Revolution file. This restriction includes altering the header or other parts of a Revolution file in order to let that file run under a version of Revolution under which it would not otherwise run. In particular, you may not alter the file format of any file created with Revolution Media or Dreamcard to allow it run from a Standalone Application created with Studio or Enterprise. i) When publishing Created Software on Revolution Online, you must do so subject to the the terms in Section 5 below, or as expressed elsewhere in this Agreement. j) Any Created Software is fully functional and allows users full access to the entire Revolution feature set, with the exception that if created with the Dreamcard or Media Editions, or distributed using the Revolution Player or on Revolution Online the Limits still apply. Additionally, with all editions the end user of the Created Software cannot edit scripts without purchasing or owning a Licensed Edition. You may not attempt to get around any of these limitations or encourage users of your Created Software to attempt to do so.
k) Certain files included with the Revolution Software are subject to special restrictions. These include any files that have been compiled as executables or external libraries, password protected stacks, the installer archive and Read Me ("Restricted Files"). With the exception of using Standalone Builder in its original and unmodified form to include portions of these files when producing Created Software in the Studio or Enterprise Editions, you may not modify, translate, reverse engineer, decompile, disassemble or create derivative works based upon these Restricted Files. Using any of the Restricted Files with an edition of Revolution other than the one it was distributed in is also prohibited. This paragraph does not apply to any of the other files included with the Revolution Software, which may be modified freely, though all files in the Revolution Software must be used subject to all other provisions in this agreement. l) You are prohibited from creating or distributing Created Software to be used and marketed as a generic rapid application development tool. Any Created Software that you produce that requires the end user to use a Licensed Edition of the Revolution Software will not be considered as being prohibited, nor will any Created Software that does not involve any sort of script editing. You are also prohibited from creating or distributing Created Software with the primary purpose of being used as a generic Player application for Created Software built with any edition of Revolution that does not include Standalone Builder. This clause is intended to prevent you from using the Revolution Software to produce something that is directly damaging to our business. In the event that either you or Runtime determines that your software is in such competition, you must withdraw the Created Software immediately. It is agreed that producing software that is in competition with the Revolution product could cause irreparable harm and injury and Runtime will be entitled, in addition to any other rights and remedies it may have at law or in equity, to an interdict, injunction or other similar relief enjoining or restraining you from doing or continuing to distribute such Created Software.
