This License will terminate immediately without notice from XILINX if you fail to comply with any provision of this License. Upon termination you must destroy the Design and all copies thereof.

You may provide device programming files-XILINX bit-stream files or PROM files-or the resulting HardWire gate array to third parties without prior approval.

9. Interoperability. If you acquired the Design in the European Union (EU), even if you believe you require information related to the interoperability of the Design with other programs, you shall not de-compile or disassemble the Design to obtain such information, and you agree to request such information from Xilinx at the address listed above. Upon receiving such a request, Xilinx shall determine whether you require such information for a legitimate purpose and, if so, Xilinx will provide such information to you within a reasonable time and on reasonable conditions.

10. Governing Law. This License shall be governed by the laws of the State of California, without reference to conflict of laws principles, provided that if the Design is acquired in the EU, this License shall be governed by the laws of the Republic of Ireland. The local language version of this License shall apply to any Design acquired in the EU. Irish law provides that certain conditions and warranties may be implied in contracts for the sale of goods and in contracts for the supply of services. Such conditions and warranties are hereby excluded, to the extent such exclusion, in the context of this transaction, is lawful under Irish law. Conversely, such conditions and warranties, insofar as they may not be lawfully excluded, shall apply. Accordingly nothing in this License shall prejudice any rights that you may enjoy by virtue of Sections 12, 13, 14 or 15 of the Irish Sale of Goods Act 1893 (as amended).

11. General. If for any reason a court of competent jurisdiction finds any provision of this License, or portion thereof, to be unenforceable, that provision of the License shall be replaced to the maximum extent permissible so as to effectuate the intent of the parties, and the remainder of this License shall continue in full force and effect. This License constitutes the entire agreement between the parties with respect to the use of this Design and related documentation, and supersedes all prior or contemporaneous understandings or agreements, written or oral, regarding such subject matter.
