All copies shall include all trademarks, copyright notices, restricted rights legends, proprietary markings and the like exactly as they appear on the copy of the SyncroSim Software originally provided to You. No other rights in the SyncroSim Software are granted to You.

2.2. Reservation of Rights. The SyncroSim Software and Documentation are licensed, not sold. ApexRMS and its licensors own and shall retain all right, title and interest (including without limitation all patent rights, copyrights, trade-mark rights, trade secret rights and all other intellectual property rights), in and to the SyncroSim Software and Documentation and any copies, corrections, bug fixes, enhancements, modifications or new versions thereof, all of which shall be deemed part of the SyncroSim Software and subject to all of the provisions of this Agreement.

2.3. Limits on Concurrent Users. A User identification may be reassigned to a new individual replacing one who no longer requires ongoing use of the SyncroSim Software. If you exceed the authorized number of concurrent Users, ApexRMS may work with Customer to seek to reduce Customer’s usage so that it conforms to the applicable limit. If, notwithstanding ApexRMS’ efforts, Customer is unable or unwilling to abide by a contractual usage limit, Customer will execute an Order Form for additional Users promptly upon ApexRMS’ request, and/or pay any invoice for excess usage in accordance with the terms hereof.

2.4. Delivery. Delivery of the SyncroSim Software shall be made by electronic means, and such delivery shall be deemed to have been made as of the Subscription Start Date.

Customer further agree not to disclose, transfer or otherwise provide to any third party any portion of the SyncroSim Software, Documentation or Confidential Information or know-how, except as explicitly permitted herein.
