   AGREEMENT BETWEEN YOU (EITHER AS AN INDIVIDUAL OR AN ENTITY) AND GSL
   BIOTECH LLC ("GSL"). PLEASE READ IT CAREFULLY BEFORE COMPLETING THE
   INSTALLATION PROCESS AND USING THE SOFTWARE. THIS AGREEMENT PROVIDES A
   LICENSE TO USE THE SOFTWARE AND CONTAINS WARRANTY INFORMATION AND
   LIABILITY DISCLAIMERS. BY INSTALLING AND USING THE SOFTWARE, YOU ARE
   CONFIRMING YOUR ACCEPTANCE OF THE SOFTWARE AND AGREEING TO BECOME BOUND BY
   THE TERMS OF THIS AGREEMENT. IF YOU DO NOT AGREE TO BE BOUND BY THESE
   TERMS, THEN DO NOT INSTALL THE SOFTWARE, AND RETURN THE SOFTWARE TO GSL.

    1. Recitals

         1. This End User License Agreement ("EULA") is a legal agreement
            between you (either an individual person or a single legal
            entity, who will be referred to in this EULA as "End User", and
            GSL Biotech LLC ("GSL") for the SnapGene software product
            ("Software") or SnapGene Viewer software product ("Freeware")
            that accompanies this EULA, including any associated media,
            printed materials and electronic documentation.
         2. The Software or Freeware also includes any software updates,
            add-on components, web services and/or supplements that GSL may
            provide to End User or make available to End User after the date
            End User obtains the initial copy of the Software or Freeware, to
            the extent that such items are not accompanied by a separate
            license agreement or terms of use. By installing, copying,
            downloading, accessing or otherwise using the Software or
            Freeware, End User agrees to be bound by the terms of this EULA.
            If End User does not agree to the terms of this EULA, End User
            should not install, access or use the Software or Freeware.

    2. License Grants

            non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-renewable license to copy
            and use the Software for evaluation purposes only. At GSL's
            discretion, GSL may provide limited support through email or
            discussion forums at GSL's website. The evaluation copy of the

            certain features of the Software at the end of Trial Period. GSL
            will have no liability to End User if this feature disables the
            Software.

            payment of the license fee, GSL provides End User with a
            registration number, and grants End User a limited,
            non-exclusive, non-transferable license as outlined in Sections
            2.d through Section 2.g and in Section 3.
         4. Computer-Specific License. Under the terms of a Computer-Specific
            License for the Software, End User may activate each license only
            on a single computer, and may use the Software only on that
            computer. The Software may not be accessed remotely.
         5. Floating License. Under the terms of a Floating License for the
            Software, End User may install the Software on an unlimited
            number of computers. All computers using the Software must have
            the ability to communicate with a license server. The number of
            users who may run the Software concurrently must not at any time
            exceed the number of Floating Licenses purchased.
         6. Unlimited License. Under the terms of an Unlimited License for
            the Software, End User may install and use the Software on an
            unlimited number of computers with IP addresses in a specified IP
            range as agreed to by GSL and End User.
         7. The Software or Freeware is for educational and non-commercial or
            commercial research purposes only. GSL makes no representation
            that the Software or Freeware is a clinically approved medical
            device, and End User understands and accepts that any result or
            its display presented in whatever form obtained using the
            Software or Freeware must not be used for any purpose other than
            education or research.

            purposes. Any backup copy must contain all copyright notices and

            Software. End User may not sell or transfer any copy of the
            Software made for backup purposes.
         3. End User's license rights under this EULA are non-exclusive and
            non-assignable.
         4. Other than as set forth in Section 3.b, End User may not make

            and its distributors may, in addition to seeking any damages,
            terminate the license. Upon termination, End User must destroy
            all copies of the Software (with all other rights of both parties
            and all other provisions of this EULA surviving any such
            termination).

    4. Ownership

       The foregoing license gives End User a limited license to use the
       Software. GSL retains all rights, title and interest, including all
       copyright and intellectual property rights, in and to the Software and
       all copies thereof. The Software is protected by the copyright laws of
       the United States and other countries. All rights not expressly
       granted in this EULA are reserved by GSL.

    5. LIMITED WARRANTY AND DISCLAIMER

         1. GSL warrants that, for a period of ninety (90) days, the Software
            will perform in substantial conformance with published
            specifications for the Software.
         2. EXCEPT AS SET FORTH IN THE FOREGOING LIMITED WARRANTY WITH
            RESPECT TO THE SOFTWARE, GSL DISCLAIMS ALL OTHER WARRANTIES AND
            REPRESENTATIONS, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED, OR OTHERWISE,
            INCLUDING THE WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A
            PARTICULAR PURPOSE. ALSO, THERE IS NO WARRANTY OF
            NON-INFRINGEMENT AND TITLE OR QUIET ENJOYMENT. GSL DOES NOT
            WARRANT THAT THE SOFTWARE IS ERROR-FREE OR WILL OPERATE WITHOUT
            INTERRUPTION. THE SOFTWARE IS NOT DESIGNED, INTENDED OR LICENSED
            FOR USE IN HAZARDOUS ENVIRONMENTS REQUIRING FAIL-SAFE CONTROLS.
         3. IF APPLICABLE LAW REQUIRES ANY WARRANTIES WITH RESPECT TO THE
            SOFTWARE, ALL SUCH WARRANTIES ARE LIMITED IN DURATION TO NINETY
            (90) DAYS FROM THE DATE OF DELIVERY.
         4. NO ORAL OR WRITTEN INFORMATION OR ADVICE GIVEN BY GSL SHALL
            CREATE A WARRANTY OR IN ANY WAY INCREASE THE SCOPE OF ANY
            WARRANTY PROVIDED HEREIN.
         5. (USA only) SOME STATES DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OF IMPLIED
            WARRANTIES, SO THE ABOVE EXCLUSION MAY NOT APPLY TO END USER.
            THIS WARRANTY GIVES END USER SPECIFIC LEGAL RIGHTS AND END USER
            MAY ALSO HAVE OTHER LEGAL RIGHTS THAT VARY FROM STATE TO STATE.

    6. Exclusive Remedy

       End User's exclusive remedy is to return the Software to GSL. Provided
       that any non-compliance with the above warranty is reported in writing
       to GSL no more than ninety (90) days following delivery to End User,
       GSL will use reasonable commercial efforts to supply End User with a
       replacement copy of the Software that substantially conforms to
       published specifications, provide a replacement for defective media,
       or refund to End User the purchase price for the Software, at its
       option. GSL shall have no responsibility if the Software has been
       altered in any way, or if the media has been damaged by misuse,
       accident, abuse, modification or misapplication. Any such misuse,
       accident, abuse, modification or misapplication of the Software will
       void the warranty above. THIS REMEDY IS THE SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE REMEDY
       AVAILABLE TO END USER FOR BREACH OF EXPRESS OR IMPLIED WARRANTIES WITH
       RESPECT TO THE SOFTWARE.

            TO USE EQUIPMENT OR ACCESS DATA, LOSS OF BUSINESS, LOSS OF
            PROFITS, BUSINESS INTERRUPTION OR THE LIKE), ARISING OUT OF THE
            USE OF, OR INABILITY TO USE, THE SOFTWARE AND BASED ON ANY THEORY
            OF LIABILITY INCLUDING BREACH OF CONTRACT, BREACH OF WARRANTY,
            TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), PRODUCT LIABILITY OR OTHERWISE, EVEN
            IF GSL OR ITS REPRESENTATIVES HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF THE
            POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES AND EVEN IF A REMEDY SET FORTH HEREIN
            IS FOUND TO HAVE FAILED IN ITS ESSENTIAL PURPOSE.
         2. GSL'S TOTAL LIABILITY TO END USER FOR ACTUAL DAMAGES FOR ANY
            CAUSE WHATSOEVER WILL BE LIMITED TO THE AMOUNT END USER PAID FOR
            THE SOFTWARE.
         3. (USA only) SOME STATES DO NOT ALLOW THE LIMITATION OR EXCLUSION
            OF LIABILITY FOR INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, SO THE
            ABOVE LIMITATION OR EXCLUSION MAY NOT APPLY TO END USER AND END
            USER MAY ALSO HAVE OTHER LEGAL RIGHTS THAT VARY FROM STATE TO
            STATE.
         4. THE FOREGOING LIMITATIONS ON LIABILITY ARE INTENDED TO APPLY TO
