| (v) | to combine the Software with other software or any other works and to include or feed the Software into data bases or websites; |
| (vi) | to rent and to lease the Software and to make it otherwise available permanently or temporarily to any third parties; |

The Parties understand that this Agreement does not meet the requirements of an invoice pursuant to sec. 14 of the German VAT Act. |
