I'm looking to package the Zend Optimizer software for Debian. It's
definitely non-free, but I believe the license allows for
redistribution. I'm looking for a sanity check on that point before I go
any further and would be grateful for any comments you can provide.

Thanks,
Richard

Zend Optimizer

ZEND TECHNOLOGIES LTD. ("ZEND") SOFTWARE LICENSE AGREEMENT ("AGREEMENT")

interest in and to the Software, regardless of the form or media in or
on which the original or other copies may subsequently exist including,
without limitation, all copyrights, trademarks, patents and trade secret
rights inherent therein or appurtenant thereto. This Agreement shall not

the Software are transferred to the Licensee hereby. Licensee
acknowledges that the Software is a unique, confidential and valuable
asset and trade secret of Zend or its licensors, and Zend or its
licensors shall have the right to obtain all equitable and legal redress
which may be available to it for the breach or threatened breach of this

5. Warranty; Disclaimer. THE SOFTWARE IS BEING LICENSED HEREUNDER WITH
NO WARRANTY WHATSOEVER. LICENSEE ACKNOWLEDGES THAT ITS USE OF THE
SOFTWARE IS AT ITS OWN RISK. THE SOFTWARE IS PROVIDED SOLELY ON AN
"AS-IS" BASIS. ZEND AND ITS LICENSORS MAKE, AND LICENSEE RECEIVES, NO
WARRANTIES, EXPRESS, IMPLIED, OR OTHERWISE. ZEND EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS ANY
IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, SATISFACTORY QUALITY, FITNESS FOR
A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND/OR NONINFRINGEMENT. ZEND DOES NOT WARRANT THAT
THE OPERATION OF THE SOFTWARE SHALL BE OPERABLE, UNINTERRUPTED OR ERROR
FREE OR THAT IT WILL FUNCTION OR OPERATE IN CONJUNCTION WITH ANY OTHER
PRODUCT. 

6. No Liability. IN NO EVENT SHALL ZEND OR ITS LICENSORS BE LIABLE FOR
ANY DIRECT, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, SPECIAL, INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL OR
PUNITIVE DAMAGES OR LOST PROFITS (EVEN IF THEY HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF THE
POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES) ARISING FROM OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT
OR THE SUBJECT MATTER HEREOF, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION, DAMAGES
ARISING FROM LOSS OF DATA, OR ANY OTHER DAMAGES, HOWEVER CAUSED, AND
UNDER ANY THEORY OF LIABILITY. SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE
EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION OF IMPLIED WARRANTIES OR LIABILITY FOR
INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, AND IN SUCH CASE AND ONLY TO THE
EXTENT PROHIBITED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE ABOVE LIMITATIONS OR EXCLUSIONS
MAY NOT APPLY TO LICENSEE. WITHOUT LIMITATION OF THE FOREGOING, UNDER NO
CIRCUMSTANCES SHALL LICENSOR'S TOTAL AGGREGATE LIABILITY TO LICENSEE AND
ANY OF ITS SUB-LICENSEES (REGARDLESS OF THE LENGTH OF THE TRAIL OF
SUBLICENSES) FOR ANY AND ALL CLAIMS ARISING HEREUNDER, INCLUDING WITHOUT
LIMITATION ARISING OUT OF YOUR USE OF THE SOFTWARE, EXCEED THE SUM OF
$100.

7. Indemnity. Licensee will, at its own expense, defend any action
brought by a third party against Zend to the extent that such action is
based on a claim arising from or relating to: (a) Licensee's use of the
Software, (ii) any distribution of the Software by Licensee or by any of
or by any sub-licensee, regardless of privity of contract and regardless
of the length of the trail of sublicenses, (iii) any claims based upon
warranties, guarantees or representations made by Licensee or any of its
employees, agents or sub-licensees; or (iv) any use of the Software by
any of the foregoing sub-licensees. Zend shall have the exclusive right
to control such defense. In no event shall Licensee settle any such
claim, lawsuit or proceeding without Zend's prior written approval.

8. U.s. Government restricted rights. The Software provided hereunder is
a "commercial item," as that term is defined in 48 C.F.R. 2.101,
consisting of "commercial computer software" and "commercial computer
software documentation" as such terms are used in 48 C.F.R. 12.212.
Consistent with 48 C.F.R. 12.212 and 48 C.F.R. 227.7202-1 through
227.7202-4, the Software made available to the United States of America,
its agencies and/or instrumentalities, is provided with only those
rights set forth in this Agreement. Use, duplication or disclosure of
the Software by the government is subject to the restrictions as set
forth in subparagraph (c)(1) and (2) of the Commercial Computer
Software-Restricted Rights clause at 48 C.F.R. 52.227-19, as amended, or
any successor regulations thereto.

9. Export and Import Restrictions. Licensee shall be solely responsible
for obtaining any required regulatory approvals for exportation,
importation and/or distribution of the Software.

10. Miscellaneous. This Agreement is made in and shall be governed by
the laws of the State of Israel, excluding choice of law principles.
Venue for all proceedings shall be Tel Aviv, Israel. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, Zend shall have the right to apply to any court of competent
jurisdiction for injunctive or other relief. The United Nations
Convention for the International Sale of Goods shall not apply. There is
no relationship of agency, partnership, joint venture, employment or
franchise between the parties.  Licensee or its sub-licensees do not
have the authority to bind Zend or to incur any obligation its behalf or
to represent itself as Zend's agent or in any way that might result in
confusion as to the fact that the parties are separate and distinct
entities. The section headings herein are provided for convenience only
and have no substantive effect on the construction of this Agreement. If
any provision of this Agreement is held to be unenforceable, this
Agreement shall be construed without such provision.  The failure by
Zend to exercise any right hereunder shall not operate as a waiver of
Zend's right to exercise such right or any other right in the future.
This Agreement may be amended only by a written document executed by a
duly authorized representative of each of the parties. This Agreement
constitutes the complete and exclusive statement of the terms and
agreement between Zend and Licensee and supersedes all prior
representations, understandings and communications, oral or written,
between the parties with respect thereto, including memoranda of
agreement. In the event legal action is taken by Zend or its licensors
to enforce any provision of this Agreement, all costs and expenses,
including reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses, incurred by Zend or
its licensors shall be paid by Licensee, in addition to other damages to
which Zend or its licensors may be lawfully entitled. Licensee agrees
that it will not refer to the Software or to the existence of this
Agreement nor will it use Zend's name in any press releases,
advertising, marketing or other materials without Zend's advanced
written consent in each instance. Any notice provided by Licensee to
Zend pursuant to this Agreement shall be in writing to Zend Technologies
Ltd. at P.O. Box 3619, Ramat Gan 52136, Israel, and shall be deemed
given (i) if by hand delivery, upon receipt thereof; (ii) if mailed,
three (3) days after deposit in the U.S. mails, postage prepaid,
certified mail, return receipt requested; or (iii) if by next day
delivery service, upon such delivery. Any notice provided by Zend to
Licensee pursuant to this Agreement shall be sent to the e-mail or
mailing address provided by Licensee upon registering on Zend's Web
site, and shall be deemed given (i) if by hand delivery, upon receipt
thereof; (ii) if mailed, three (3) days after deposit in the U.S. mails,
