   MICROSOFT SOFTWARE LICENSE TERMS

   MICROSOFT EDGE

   After installation, these terms are also viewable in Microsoft Edge at
   edge://terms.

   These license terms are an agreement between you and Microsoft Corporation
   (or one of its affiliates). They apply to this software published by
   Microsoft and any software updates ("Software") (except to the extent such
   Software or updates are accompanied by new or additional terms, in which case
   those different terms apply prospectively and do not alter your or
   Microsoft's rights relating to pre-updated Software). IF YOU COMPLY WITH
   THESE LICENSE TERMS, YOU HAVE THE RIGHTS BELOW. BY DOWNLOADING OR USING THE
   SOFTWARE, YOU ACCEPT THESE TERMS. IF YOU DO NOT ACCEPT THEM, YOU HAVE NO
   RIGHT TO AND MUST NOT DOWNLOAD OR USE THE SOFTWARE.

1. MICROSOFT EDGE FOR WINDOWS DEVICES

   1.1. Windows License Terms. Your installation and use of the Software on any
        Windows platform shall be governed by the license terms for your
        Microsoft Windows Operating System software ("Windows License Terms") on
        which you are using the Software, and those terms are incorporated by
        reference. If the Software is downloaded from Microsoft and labeled
        preview, insider, beta or pre-release, or is otherwise indicated as not
        being a final retail version of the Software, the applicable terms in
        Section 1.2 also apply to your use of the Software. Section 1.3 applies
        to your use of other services that may be made available for use through
        your use of the Software.

        1.1.1. Updates. Notwithstanding above Section 1.1 as applied to Windows
               7, 8, and 8.1, the terms of the applicable Windows License Terms,
               or any Windows update settings you have configured, the Software
               periodically checks for updates, and downloads and installs them
               for you. You may obtain updates only from Microsoft or authorized
               sources, and Microsoft may need to update your system to provide
               you with those updates. By accepting this agreement, you agree to
               receive these types of automatic updates without any additional
               notice.

   1.2. Previews. Microsoft may make preview, insider, beta or other pre-release
        versions of the Software ("Previews") available to you. You may use
        Previews only up to the Software's expiration date (if any) and so long
        as you comply with the applicable Windows License Terms. Previews are
        experimental, which means that Previews may not operate correctly and
        may be substantially different from the commercially released version.
        In some instances, Previews may even inadvertently damage your device
        rendering it inoperable or cause occasional crashes, data loss or apps
        to stop working or be deleted. To recover, you may have to reinstall
        your apps, the operating system or re-flash your device. In some
        instances, you may not be able to go back to your prior version of the
        Software. Because Previews may contain more errors or inaccuracies, you
        should back-up your device before installing any Previews. We recommend
        installing Previews on non-production devices that are not business
        critical because you are more likely to experience crashes, setting and
        policy changes, loss of data or apps, feature and functionality changes,
        cause other apps to stop working, be updated, or removed from your
        device automatically without notice and other potential issues. We
        highly recommend that you do not install the Previews on any systems you
        don't directly control or that you share with others. Notwithstanding
        anything to the contrary in this agreement, Previews are nontransferable
        and provided "AS IS." By installing Previews on your device, you may
        void or impact your device warranty and may not be entitled to support
        from the manufacturer of your device or network operator, if applicable.
        Microsoft may not provide support services for Previews. If you provide
        Microsoft comments, suggestions or other feedback about the Preview
        ("Submission"), you grant Microsoft and its partners rights to use the
        Submission in any way and for any purpose. You will not give a
        Submission that is subject to a license that requires Microsoft to
        license its Software or documentation to third parties because Microsoft
        includes your Submission in them. These rights survive this agreement.
        Microsoft may change or discontinue the Previews, or terminate your
        access to the Previews, at any time without notice and for any reason
        whatsoever. You may stop using the Previews at any time by un-installing
        and deleting all copies of any Previews.

        1.2.1. Data Collection for Previews. Previews may not have included,
               reduced, or different security, privacy, accessibility,
               availability and relatability standards relative to commercially
               provided services and software. For Previews covered under
               Section 1.2, privacy and feature settings may not work as
               intended, and the Previews may not work with other Windows
               privacy settings, including the diagnostic data settings for
               Windows 10. Data collected from your use of the Previews,
               including diagnostic, technical, error reports, crash dumps and
               other related data from your devices running Previews may be
               used, stored, processed and analyzed to keep Windows and the
               Previews up to date, secure, and operating properly. It also
               helps us improve Microsoft products and services and may be used
               for any other purpose described in the Microsoft Privacy
               Statement. If you disable data collection through controls
               available in the Previews, we may continue to collect diagnostic
               information about the download, the installation and removal of
               the Previews and "basic" data as described in the Windows
               Diagnostics section of the Microsoft Privacy Statement. The
               Microsoft Privacy Statement
               (https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=521839), and this
               paragraph, applies to Previews under Section 1.2.

   1.3. Other Services. The Software may include features that provide an access
        point to, or rely on, other services, websites, links, content,
        material, integrations or applications, including as provided by
                  independent third parties ("Other Services"). Your use of
                  Other Services or of Software features that rely on Other
                  Services may be governed by separate terms and subject to
                  separate privacy policies. You can view these separate terms
                  and policies through the Other Services' websites or settings,
                  as applicable. The Other Services may not be available in all
                  regions. You may not use tokens the Software uses to call into
                  a Microsoft Azure service separate from the Software.

2. MICROSOFT EDGE FOR NON-WINDOWS DEVICES

   IF YOU LIVE IN (OR ARE A BUSINESS WITH A PRINCIPAL PLACE OF BUSINESS IN) THE
   UNITED STATES, PLEASE READ THE "BINDING ARBITRATION AND CLASS ACTION WAIVER"
   SECTION 2.14 BELOW. IT AFFECTS HOW DISPUTES ARE RESOLVED.

   2.1.  Installation and Use Rights. For installation and use of the Software
         on any non-Windows platform, including but not limited to macOS and
         Linux, you may install and use one copy of the Software on any device
         running such non-Windows platform.

   2.2.  Third Party Software. The Software may include third party software
         that is licensed to you under this agreement or under their own terms
         or under open source licenses with source code availability options.
         License terms, notices, and acknowledgements, if any, for the third
         party software may be accessible online at
         https://aka.ms/thirdpartynotices or in an accompanying notices file.
         Even if such software is governed by other agreements, the disclaimer,
         limitations on, and exclusions of damages below also apply to the
         extent allowed by applicable law.

   2.3.  Previews. Microsoft may make preview, insider, beta or other
         pre-release versions of the Software ("Previews") available to you. You
         may use Previews only up to the software's expiration date (if any) and
         so long as you comply with these license terms. Previews are
         experimental, which means that Previews may not operate correctly and
         may be substantially different from the commercially released version.
         In some instances, Previews may even inadvertently damage your device
         rendering it inoperable or cause occasional crashes, data loss or apps
         to stop working or be deleted. To recover, you may have to reinstall
         your apps, the operating system or re-flash your device. In some
         instances, you may not be able to go back to your prior version of the
         Software. Because Previews may contain more errors or inaccuracies, you
         should back-up your device before installing any Previews. We recommend
         installing Previews on non-production devices that are not business
         critical because you are more likely to experience crashes, setting and
         policy changes, loss of data or apps, feature and functionality
         changes, cause other apps to stop working, be updated, or removed from
         your device automatically without notice and other potential issues. We
         highly recommend that you do not install the Previews on any systems
         you don't directly control or that you share with others.
         Notwithstanding  anything to the contrary in this agreement, Previews
         are nontransferable and provided "AS IS." By installing Previews on
         your device, you may void or impact your device warranty and may not be
         entitled to support from the manufacturer of your device or network
         operator, if applicable. Microsoft may not provide support services for
         Previews. Microsoft may change or discontinue the Previews, or
         terminate your access to the Previews, at any time without notice and
         for any reason whatsoever. You may stop using the Previews at any time
         by un-installing and deleting all copies of any Previews.

         2.3.1. Data Collection for Previews. Previews may not have included,
                reduced, or different security, privacy, accessibility,
                availability and relatability standards relative to
                commercially provided services and software. For Previews
                covered under Section 2.3, privacy and feature settings may
                not work as intended, and the Previews may not work with other
                operating system privacy settings. Data collected from your use
                of Previews, including diagnostic, technical, error reports,
                crash dumps and other related data from your devices running
                Previews may be used, stored, processed and analyzed to keep the
                Previews up to date, secure, and operating properly. It also
                helps us improve Microsoft products and services and may be used
                for any other purpose described in the Microsoft Privacy
                Statement. If you disable data collection through controls
                available in the Previews, we may continue to collect diagnostic
                information about the download, the installation and any removal
                of the Previews and "basic" data as described in the Windows
                Diagnostics section of the Microsoft Privacy Statement. The
                Microsoft Privacy Statement
                (https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=521839), and this
                paragraph, applies to Previews under Section 2.3.

   2.4.  Other Services. The Software may include features that provide an
         access point to, or rely on, other services, websites, links, content,
         material, integrations or applications, including as provided by
         independent third parties ("Other Services"). Your use of Other
         Services or of Software features that rely on Other Services may be
         governed by separate terms and subject to separate privacy policies.
         You can view these separate terms and policies through the Other
         Services' websites or settings, as applicable. The Other Services may
         not be available in all regions.

   2.5.  Communications with You. Microsoft may use your contact information (i)
         to communicate with you about your use of the Software, and (ii) to
         provide you with additional information, about the Software and other
         Microsoft products or services. This contact may be by email, SMS,
         instant message, web chat, phone, in the user interface, or other
         means, and may include offers. You can always choose whether you wish
         to receive promotional email, SMS messages, telephone calls and postal
         mail from Microsoft.

   2.6.  Feedback. If you provide Microsoft comments, suggestions or other
         feedback about the Software to Microsoft ("Submission"), you grant
         Microsoft and its partners rights to use the Submission in any way and
         for any purpose. You will not give Microsoft a Submission that is
         subject to a license that requires Microsoft to license its Software or
         documentation to third parties because Microsoft includes your feedback
         in them. These rights survive this agreement.

   2.7.  Data Collection. The Software may collect information about you and
         your use of the Software and send that to Microsoft. By accepting this
         agreement and using the Software you agree that Microsoft may collect,
         use, and disclose the information as described in the Microsoft Privacy
         Statement at https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=521839, and as may
         be described in the user interface associated with the Software
         features.

   2.8.  Scope of License. The Software is licensed, not sold. This agreement
         gives you only some rights to use the Software. Microsoft reserves all
         other rights. Unless applicable law gives you more rights despite this
         limitation, you will not (and have no right to):

          (a) work around any technical limitations in the Software that only
              allow you to use it in certain ways;
          (b) reverse engineer, decompile, disassemble, decrypt or otherwise
              attempt to derive the source code of the Software, except and only
              to the extent that the foregoing restriction is (i) permitted by
              applicable law; (ii) required by third party licensing terms
              governing the use of certain open-source components that may be
              included with the Software; or (iii) required to debug changes to
              any libraries licensed under the GNU Lesser General Public License
              which are included with and linked to by the Software.
          (c) remove, minimize, block, or modify any notices of Microsoft or its
              suppliers in the Software;
          (d) when using Internet-based features, you may not use those features
              in any way that could interfere with anyone else's use of them or
              to try to gain access to or use any service, data, account, or
              network, in an unauthorized manner;
          (e) use the Software in any way that is against the law or to create
              or propagate malware; or
          (f) share, publish, distribute, or lend the Software, provide the
              Software as a stand-alone hosted solution for others to use, or
              transfer the Software or this agreement to any third party.
          (g) use tokens the Software uses to call into a Microsoft Azure
              service separate from the Software.

   2.9.  Documentation. If documentation is provided with the Software, you may
         copy and use the documentation for personal reference purposes.

   2.10. H.264/AVC and MPEG-4 Visual Standards and VC-1 Video Standards. The
         Software may include H.264/AVC, MPEG-4 Visual, and/or VC-1 codec
         technology. MPEG LA, L.L.C. requires this notice:

          THIS PRODUCT IS LICENSED UNDER THE H.264/AVC, THE VC-1, AND THE MPEG-4
          PART 2 VISUAL PATENT PORTFOLIO LICENSES FOR THE PERSONAL AND
          NON-COMMERCIAL USE OF A CONSUMER TO (i) ENCODE VIDEO IN COMPLIANCE
          WITH THE ABOVE STANDARDS ("VIDEO STANDARDS") OR (ii) DECODE AVC, VC-1,
          AND MPEG-4 PART 2 VIDEO THAT WAS ENCODED BY A CONSUMER ENGAGED IN A
          PERSONAL AND NON-COMMERCIAL ACTIVITY OR WAS OBTAINED FROM A VIDEO
          PROVIDER LICENSED TO PROVIDE SUCH VIDEO. NO LICENSE IS GRANTED OR
          SHALL BE IMPLIED FOR ANY OTHER USE. ADDITIONAL INFORMATION MAY BE
          OBTAINED FROM MPEG LA, L.L.C. SEE https://aka.ms/mpegla.

   2.11. Export Restrictions. You must comply with all domestic and
         international export laws and regulations that apply to the Software,
         which include restrictions on destinations, end users, and end use. For
         further information on export restrictions, visit
         https://aka.ms/exporting.

   2.12. Support Services. Microsoft is not obligated under this agreement to
         provide any support services for the Software. Any support provided
         is "as is", "with all faults", and without warranty of any kind.

   2.13. Updates. The Software may periodically check for updates, and download
         and install them for you. You may obtain updates only from Microsoft or
         authorized sources. Microsoft may need to update your system to provide
         you with updates. You agree to receive these automatic updates without
         any additional notice. Updates may not include or support all existing
         Software features, services, or peripheral devices.

   2.14. Binding Arbitration and Class Action Waiver. This Section applies if
         you live in (or, if a business, your principal place of business is in)
         the United States. If you and Microsoft have a dispute, you and
         Microsoft agree to try for 60 days to resolve it informally. If you and
         Microsoft can't, you and Microsoft agree to binding individual
         arbitration before the American Arbitration Association under the
         Federal Arbitration Act ("FAA"), and not to sue in court in front of a
         judge or jury. Instead, a neutral arbitrator will decide. Class action
         lawsuits, class-wide arbitrations, private attorney-general actions,
         and any other proceeding where someone acts in a representative
         capacity are not allowed; nor is combining individual proceedings
         without the consent of all parties. The complete Arbitration Agreement
         contains more terms and is at https://aka.ms/arb-agreement-1. You and
         Microsoft agree to these terms.

   2.15. Entire Agreement. This agreement, and any other terms Microsoft may
         provide for supplements, updates, or third-party applications, is the
         entire agreement for the Software.

   2.16. Applicable Law and lace to resolve disputes. If you acquired the
         Software in the United States or Canada, the laws of the state or
         province where you live (or, if a business, where your principal place
         of business is located) govern the interpretation of this agreement,
         claims for its breach, and all other claims (including consumer
         protection, unfair competition, and tort claims), regardless of
         conflict of laws principles, except that the FAA governs everything
         related to arbitration. If you acquired the Software in any other
         country, its laws apply, except that the FAA governs everything related
         to arbitration. If U.S. federal jurisdiction exists, you and Microsoft
         consent to exclusive jurisdiction and venue in the federal court in
         King County, Washington for all disputes heard in court (excluding
         arbitration). If not, you and Microsoft consent to exclusive
         jurisdiction and venue in the Superior Court of King County, Washington
         for all disputes heard in court (excluding arbitration).

   2.17. Consumer Rights; Regional Variations. This agreement describes certain
         legal rights. You may have other rights, including consumer rights,
         under the laws of your state, province, or country. Separate and apart
         from your relationship with Microsoft, you may also have rights with
         respect to the party from which you acquired the Software. This
         agreement does not change those other rights if the laws of your state,
         province, or country do not permit it to do so. For example, if you
         acquired the Software in one of the below regions, or mandatory country
         law applies, then the following provisions apply to you:

          (a) Australia. You have statutory guarantees under the Australian
              Consumer Law and nothing in this agreement is intended to affect
              those rights.
          (b) Canada. If you acquired this Software in Canada, you may stop
              receiving updates by disconnecting your device from the Internet
              (if and when you re-connect to the Internet, however, the Software
              will resume checking for and installing updates), or uninstalling
              the Software. The product documentation, if any, may also specify
              how to turn off updates for your specific device or Software.
          (c) Germany and Austria.

               i.  Warranty. The properly licensed Software will perform
                   substantially as described in any Microsoft materials that
                   accompany the Software. However, Microsoft gives no
                   contractual guarantee in relation to the licensed Software.
               ii. Limitation of Liability. In case of intentional conduct,
                   gross negligence, claims based on the Product Liability Act,
                   as well as, in case of death or personal orphysical injury,
                   Microsoft is liable according to the statutory law.

                    Subject to the foregoing clause ii., Microsoft will only be
                    liable for slight negligence if Microsoft is in breach of
                    such material contractual obligations, the fulfillment of
                    which facilitate the due performance of this agreement, the
                    breach of which would endanger the purpose of this agreement
                    and the compliance with which a party may constantly trust
                    in (so-called "cardinal obligations"). In other cases of
                    slight negligence, Microsoft will not be liable for slight
                    negligence.

   2.18. DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTY. THE SOFTWARE IS LICENSED "AS IS," "WITH ALL
         FAULTS," AND "AS AVAILABLE." YOU BEAR THE RISK OF USING IT. MICROSOFT
         GIVES NO EXPRESS WARRANTIES, GUARANTEES, OR CONDITIONS. YOU MAY HAVE
         ADDITIONAL CONSUMER RIGHTS OR STATUTORY GUARANTEES UNDER YOUR LOCAL
         LAWS THAT THIS AGREEMENT CANNOT CHANGE. TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED UNDER
         YOUR LOCAL LAWS, MICROSOFT EXCLUDES ALL IMPLIED WARRANTIES, INCLUDING
         MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND
         NON-INFRINGEMENT.

   2.19. LIMITATION ON AND EXCLUSION OF REMEDIES AND DAMAGES. IF YOU HAVE ANY
         BASIS FOR RECOVERING DAMAGES DESPITE THE PRECEDING DISCLAIMER OF
         WARRANTY, YOU CAN RECOVER FROM MICROSOFT AND MICROSOFT'S AFFILIATES OR
         SUPPLIERS ONLY DIRECT DAMAGES UP TO THE AMOUNT YOU PAID FOR THE
         SOFTWARE OR $5.00, WHICHEVER IS GREATER. YOU CANNOT RECOVER ANY OTHER
         DAMAGES OR LOSSES, INCLUDING CONSEQUENTIAL, LOST PROFITS, SPECIAL,
         INDIRECT, PUNITIVE OR INCIDENTAL DAMAGES. TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT
         PERMITTED BY LAW, THESE LIMITATIONS AND EXCLUSIONS APPLY TO ANYTHING OR
