2.2.1 You (a company or natural person), hereinafter also referred to as "Licensee", are entitled to use the software according to the number of purchased licenses (the num-ber/type of the purchased licenses is specified in the invoice/license certificate, or an elec-tronic confirmation you receive from OCAD Inc. or one of its authorized resellers) if and to the extent that you comply with the following terms.
2.2.2 Single User License: The purchase of a single user license entitles one user (also referenced as primary user) to install and use the software on one data processing unit. Furthermore, the primary user is entitled to carry out another (second) installation on an-other (second) data processing unit and to use the software there, if and insofar as this further (second) data processing unit is used exclusively by the primary user.

OCAD Inc. must be notified of the permanent transfer via the transfer form at www.ocad.com/transfer or via the installed and activated OCAD software (license transfer), stating the recipient of the transfer.
2.2.10 Due to obvious damage of the permanent volume on which OCAD was installed and activated, OCAD Inc. is able to apply an additional activation of OCAD. For this pur-pose, OCAD Inc. must be informed via transfer form at www.ocad.com/transfer stating the type of loss as well as the user name and license number of the OCAD license con-cerned.

• has committed an unresolvable breach of its obligations under this agreement.
2.2.14 To enable the execution of this contract, the licensee is obliged to register by e-mail or online registration and to provide hardware fingerprints.

However, we will make reasonable efforts to notify you of any changes in good time.
2.3. Term of the license
2.3.1 The license is generally granted for a limited period of one year (365 days).
2.3.2 The duration of the limited annual subscription begins with the sending of the license information (including activation code) by e-mail, as stated in the corresponding invoice of OCAD Inc. or the OCAD reseller. From this time on, the licensee can use OCAD for 365 days.
2.3.3 An extension is always valid for one year (365 days) from the expiry date of the yearly subscription.
2.4 Termination
2.4.1 Termination by the licensee.
Licensee may terminate the use of the Software at any time up to thirty (30) days prior to the end of the term. In the event of early termination, he is not entitled to a refund of the annual fee paid for the annual subscription.
About 8 weeks before the end of the annual subscription, the OCAD Inc. or the OCAD re-seller will inform the licensee about the expiration of the license's useful life. He then has the option of cancelling the annual subscription at the latest 30 days before the end of the term. If he does not use this time, it is tacitly assumed that he wants to extend the annual subscription.
2.4.2 Termination by OCAD Inc. or OCAD reseller.
If we terminate these terms without cause, we will reasonably endeavor to notify you at least 30 days prior to termination by sending a notice to the email address you provide. Except as otherwise provided in the Additional Terms, we may terminate your right to use and access the Software at any time if:
(a) You violate any of these provisions (or act in a manner that indicates that you do not intend or are not able to comply with these best practices),
(b) You may not pay for the software or services on time,
(c) This is necessary for us for legal reasons (e.g. if the provision of the services or soft-ware is or becomes illegal for you).

Furthermore, the primary user is entitled to carry out another (second) installation on an-other (second) data processing unit and to use the software there, if and insofar as this further (second) data processing unit is used exclusively by the primary user. 2.2.3 License for Teams: The purchase of a team license entitles a user to install and use the software on a data processing unit. The user can transfer the purchased license to another subsequent user. After the transfer, the transferring user can no longer use the purchased license.

However, we will make reasonable efforts to notify you of any changes in good time. 2.3. Term of the license 2.3.1 The license is generally granted for a limited period of one year (365 days). 2.3.2 The duration of the limited annual subscription begins with the sending of the license information (including activation code) by e-mail, as stated in the corresponding invoice of OCAD Inc. or the OCAD reseller. From this time on, the licensee can use OCAD for 365 days. 2.3.3 An extension is always valid for one year (365 days) from the expiry date of the yearly subscription. 2.4 Termination 2.4.1 Termination by the licensee. Licensee may terminate the use of the Software at any time up to thirty (30) days prior to the end of the term. In the event of early termination, he is not entitled to a refund of the annual fee paid for the annual subscription. About 8 weeks before the end of the annual subscription, the OCAD Inc. or the OCAD re-seller will inform the licensee about the expiration of the license's useful life. He then has the option of cancelling the annual subscription at the latest 30 days before the end of the term. If he does not use this time, it is tacitly assumed that he wants to extend the annual subscription. 2.4.2 Termination by OCAD Inc. or OCAD reseller. If we terminate these terms without cause, we will reasonably endeavor to notify you at least 30 days prior to termination by sending a notice to the email address you provide. Except as otherwise provided in the Additional Terms, we may terminate your right to use and access the Software at any time if: (a) You violate any of these provisions (or act in a manner that indicates that you do not intend or are not able to comply with these best practices), (b) You may not pay for the software or services on time, (c) This is necessary for us for legal reasons (e.g. if the provision of the services or soft-ware is or becomes illegal for you).
