For per GPU licenses, NVIDIA requires one Omniverse Product license for each GPU. For Omniverse Products that are licensed under the Agreement to run on computing environments or compute instances without an NVIDIA GPU, NVIDIA requires one Omniverse Product license for each computing environment, or compute instance.
“Named User License” means a license that may only be used by a single named authorized user and such authorized user may not re-assign or share the license with any other person (including, without limitation, other authorized users); provided, however, that if the named authorized user is no longer employed or no longer requires any access to Omniverse Product as part of his or her job, you may re-assign a named user license to a new named authorized user. You shall track the names and the access period of individuals in conjunction with the use of Named User Licenses.

No Warranties.
OMNIVERSE IS PROVIDED AS-IS AND WITH ALL FAULTS. TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW NVIDIA AND ITS AFFILIATES EXPRESSLY DISCLAIM ALL WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND OR NATURE, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, NON-INFRINGEMENT, OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. NVIDIA DOES NOT WARRANT THAT OMNIVERSE WILL MEET YOUR REQUIREMENTS, OR THAT THE OPERATION THEREOF WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED OR ERROR-FREE, OR THAT ALL ERRORS CAN OR WILL BE CORRECTED. NVIDIA does not warrant or assume responsibility for the accuracy or completeness of any information, text, graphics, links or other items contained in Omniverse.
Limitations of Liability.
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW NVIDIA AND ITS AFFILIATES SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, PUNITIVE OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, OR FOR ANY LOST PROFITS, PROJECT DELAYS, LOSS OF USE, LOSS OF DATA OR LOSS OF GOODWILL, OR THE COSTS OF PROCURING SUBSTITUTE PRODUCTS, ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS LICENSE OR THE USE OR PERFORMANCE OF OMNIVERSE, WHETHER SUCH LIABILITY ARISES FROM ANY CLAIM BASED UPON BREACH OF CONTRACT, BREACH OF WARRANTY, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), PRODUCT LIABILITY OR ANY OTHER CAUSE OF ACTION OR THEORY OF LIABILITY, EVEN IF NVIDIA HAS PREVIOUSLY BEEN ADVISED OF, OR COULD REASONABLY HAVE FORESEEN, THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES AND REGARDLESS IF A REMEDY FAILS ITS ESSENTIAL PURPOSE. IN NO EVENT WILL NVIDIA’S AND ITS AFFILIATES TOTAL CUMULATIVE LIABILITY UNDER OR ARISING OUT OF THIS LICENSE EXCEED THE NET AMOUNTS RECEIVED BY NVIDIA OR ITS AFFILIATES FOR YOUR USE OF THE PARTICULAR UNEXPIRED OMNIVERSE LICENSES GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM BEFORE THE LIABILITY AROSE (or up to US$10.00 if you obtained licenses or services at no charge). THE NATURE OF THE LIABILITY OR THE NUMBER OF CLAIMS OR SUITS SHALL NOT ENLARGE OR EXTEND THIS LIMIT. The disclaimers, exclusions and limitations of liability set forth in this license form an essential basis of the bargain between the parties, and, absent any such disclaimers, exclusions or limitations of liability, the provisions of the license, including, without limitation, the economic terms, would be substantially different.
Termination.
16.1 NVIDIA may terminate this license upon notice if: (i) you fail to comply with any term of this license and the non-compliance is not fixed within thirty (30) days following notice from NVIDIA (or immediately if you violate NVIDIA’s intellectual property rights); (ii) you commence or participate in any legal proceeding against NVIDIA with respect to Omniverse; or (iii) you become the subject of a voluntary or involuntary petition in bankruptcy or any proceeding relating to insolvency, receivership, liquidation or composition for the benefit of creditors, if that petition or proceeding is not dismissed with prejudice within sixty (60) days after filing, or if you cease to do business.
16.2 For Omniverse Products for which NVIDIA indicates a fixed license duration (i.e., a Subscription term), your license ends at the earlier of the expiration or termination of the applicable subscription term or this license. For Omniverse Products for which NVIDIA does not indicate a fixed license duration, either party may terminate the license at any time for convenience with 30 days prior written notice. Each service ends at the earlier of the expiration or termination of the service or this license, or upon the expiration or termination of the associated license and no credit or refund will be provided for any fees paid.
16.3 Upon any expiration or termination of this license, a particular license or a service any amounts owed to NVIDIA become immediately due and payable and you agree to promptly discontinue use of the affected Omniverse Products and destroy all copies in your possession or control. Upon written request, you will certify in writing that you have complied with your commitments under this section. Upon any termination of this license all provisions survive except for the licenses granted to you.
General
17.1 Applicable Law. This license will be governed in all respects by the laws of the United States and of the State of Delaware, without regard to the conflicts of laws principles. The United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods is specifically disclaimed. You agree to all terms of this license in the English language. The state or federal courts residing in Santa Clara County, California shall have exclusive jurisdiction over any dispute or claim arising out of this license. Notwithstanding this, you agree that NVIDIA shall still be allowed to apply for injunctive remedies or urgent legal relief in any jurisdiction.
17.2 No Assignment. This license and your rights and obligations thereunder may not be assigned by you by any means or operation of law without NVIDIA’s permission. Any attempted assignment not approved by NVIDIA in writing shall be void and of no effect. NVIDIA may assign, delegate or transfer this license and its rights and obligations, and if to a non-affiliate you will be notified.
17.3 Audit Rights. During the term of this license and for a period of three (3) years thereafter, NVIDIA or an independent auditor will have the right to audit you during regular business hours to check for compliance with the terms of this license. Audits will be conducted no more frequently than annually, unless non-compliance was previously found. If an audit reveals an underpayment, you will promptly remit the full amount of such underpayment to NVIDIA including interest that will accrue (without the requirement of a notice) at the lower of 1.5% per month or the highest rate permissible by law. If the underpaid amount exceeds five percent (5%) of the amounts payable to NVIDIA during the audited period and/or if the audit reveals a material non-conformance with the terms of this license, then you will reimburse NVIDIA’s reasonable audit costs. Further, you agree that the party delivering Omniverse licenses or services to you may share with NVIDIA information regarding your compliance with this license.
17.4 Export. Omniverse is subject to United States export laws and regulations.
