6.4 Supplier agrees to give Buyer the benefit of any price decreases Supplier offers for Products not yet shipped by Brocade from the date a price decrease becomes effective.

6.5 Supplier agrees to give Buyer prior written notice of any changes to Supplier list price for the Products. The parties will sign an amendment to this Agreement indicating the new Buyer Price.

In the event that an audit discloses any under-payment, the total amount so determined will be promptly credited to the account of Supplier or paid to Supplier upon demand. Nothing in this paragraph is intended to preclude any other remedies that Supplier may have as a result of any such payment discrepancy. To the extent the audit reveals an under-payment of [**] or more, based on the payment provisions of Section 6.1 above, then Buyer shall pay for the cost of the audit.
7. Taxes
Supplier will ensure that the Prices do not include any sales, use or other similar taxes that do not apply to Buyer as a reseller of Programs and/or Services.

Supplier’s invoices shall state applicable taxes owed by the Buyer, if any, by tax jurisdiction and with a proper breakdown between taxable and non-taxable Programs and Services.

Exhibit A — End User License
BROCADE END USER LICENSE AGREEMENT
Single User License. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and payment of the applicable license fees, Brocade Communications Systems, Inc. (“Brocade”) and its suppliers grant to Brocade (“End User”) a non-exclusive, non-transferable license to use the Software in object code form solely for the purpose of operating Brocade storage area networking switches and solely on the number of Brocade storage area networking switches and on the number of servers for which End User is licensed to use this Software. End User may make such backup copies of the Software as may be necessary for End User’s lawful use, provided End User affixes to such copies all trademark, copyright, patent, and notices of other proprietary rights that appear on the original.
Limitations. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, End User shall have no right, and End User specifically agrees not to, and not to permit third parties to: (i) modify, adapt, change, enhance or create derivative works based upon the Software; (ii) copy, or otherwise reproduce the Software in whole or in part; (iii) decompile, translate, reverse engineer, disassemble or otherwise reduce the Software to human-readable form, except to the extent expressly permitted under local law; (iv) use the Software on any Brocade storage area networking switches in excess of the maximum number of Brocade storage area networking switches and servers for which End User is licensed; or v) remove, modify or otherwise tamper with any notice or legend on any labeling on any physical media containing the Software. End-User’s rights in the Software will be limited to those expressly granted herein.
Upgrades and Additional Copies. For purposes of this Agreement, “Software” shall also include any upgrades, updates, bug fixes or modified versions (“Upgrades”) provided to End User by Brocade or an authorized distributor, along with any backup copies of the Software, and for which End User had paid the applicable license and support and maintenance fees. Notwithstanding the foregoing, End User acknowledges and agrees that Brocade and its resellers and distributors shall have no obligation to provide any Upgrades. If Upgrades or additional copies of the Software are provided, End User acknowledges and agrees that it has no license or right to use such additional copies or Upgrades unless End User, at the time of acquiring such copy or Upgrade, already holds a valid license and the corresponding software keys to the original Software for the applicable number of copies, and is subject to a then-current Software support and maintenance program with Brocade or its authorized distributor.
Third Party Software. Certain components of the Software may incorporate “open source” software. Such software is subject to the applicable open source license (e.g., GNU General Public License) and is not subject to this Agreement. To obtain a copy of the source code and applicable licensing terms for the open source software used by Brocade, please see http://www.brocade.com/support/oscd.jsp.

No Support. Brocade may, but is not required to, provide technical support for this Software. Technical Support may be provided on either; a time and material basis or under the terms of a separate Maintenance and Support Agreement.
Security Notice. Software may include security features that End User can use, along with other security tools, to implement increased security in End User’s storage area network (“SAN”). However, use of the security features of the Software does not guarantee the security of End User’s SAN or overall network. There are numerous factors that affect the security of a SAN, including, without limitation, correct installation and setup of the security features of Software and all related requirements, correctly configured security policies, selection of hardware and software (including network security tools), correct installation, configuration, and maintenance of the hardware and software, the interoperability of the various components of End User’s SAN and End User’s network, and a physically and electronically secure operating environment. In addition, Software may utilize digital certificates in connection with its access control features. Although digital certificates are a useful authentication security measure that improves overall security, they do not guarantee authenticity or security. To help End User evaluate the digital certificate functionality of Software, End User can obtain details from the Certification Practices Statement, which is included with the documentation End User received with this product or which End User can view at http://www.switchkeyactivation.com/cps. In designing the security of End User’s SAN, it is End User’s responsibility to evaluate all of these factors to ensure End User’s SAN meets End User’s security requirements. End User’s experience may vary based on these and other factors. End User’s use of Software, including the digital certificates, is subject to and governed by the terms of this license agreement and to End User’s compliance with the policies and procedures for the use of the security features of Software and digital certificates, which may be made available to End User by Brocade from time to time. If Brocade becomes aware of a breach of the security of its digital certificate infrastructure, Brocade reserves the right to re-issue digital certificates. In that event, End User will be required to submit new certificate signing requests and install reissued certificates across End User’s SAN. End User should plan for any network disruption that this may cause. END USER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT END USER HAS ACCESS TO SUFFICIENT INFORMATION TO ENSURE THAT END USER CAN MAKE AN INFORMED DECISION AS TO THE EXTENT TO WHICH END USER CHOOSES TO RELY ON DIGITAL CERTIFICATES AND OTHER SECURITY FEATURES IN SOFTWARE (“SECURITY”).
Disclaimer of Warranty. TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, BROCADE PROVIDES THE SOFTWARE “AS IS” WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND. BROCADE DOES NOT WARRANT THAT THE SOFTWARE IS ERROR FREE OR THAT END USER WILL BE ABLE TO OPERATE THE SOFTWARE WITHOUT PROBLEMS OR INTERRUPTIONS. TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, BROCADE AND ITS SUPPLIERS, DISTRIBUTORS, AND RESELLERS DISCLAIM ALL EXPRESS OR IMPLIED CONDITIONS, REPRESENTATIONS, AND WARRANTIES INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY IMPLIED WARRANTY OR CONDITION OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NONINFRINGEMENT, AND SATISFACTORY QUALITY OR ARISING FROM A COURSE OF DEALING, USAGE, OR TRADE PRACTICE.

Without limiting the foregoing, End User acknowledges and agrees that the Software, including technical data, is subject to United States export control laws, including the United States Export Administration Act and its associated regulations, and may be subject to export or import regulations in other countries. End User agrees to comply strictly with all such regulations and acknowledges that End User has the responsibility to obtain licenses to export, re-export, or import the Software.
Restricted Rights. The Software under this Agreement is commercial computer software as that term is described in 48 C.F.R. 252 ###-###-####(a)(1). If acquired by or on behalf of a civilian agency, the U.S. Government acquires this commercial computer software and/or commercial
