SOFTWARE LICENSE AGREEMENT

PREAMBLE

Nikolaos Tsapanos (Tax Identification / VAT Number EL104216536) - (hereinafter referred to as the “Developer”) provides software under the name “GeoND”, hereinafter referred to as “GeoND” or “(the) Library”.

The Library is a collection of custom operations and additional functions for the training and operation of neural networks and is currently available for the PyTorch and TensorFlow software packages. The custom operations are meant to either replace existing layers in network architectures, or be additionally inserted into said architectures, in order to increase the performance, or speed of the neural network. In some cases, these custom operations require specific functions during the training of the network, which are included in the Library.

The Library is available in several versions (as defined under Appendix I), each with distinct features. This Agreement applies to all such versions and lays out the specifics for each version.

These license terms are an agreement between the Developer and you (the “Client”). Please read them. They apply to the software named above, which includes the media on which you received it, if any. The terms also apply to any:

• subsequent version of the software (including any updates or supplements),
• Internet-based services, and
• support services

for this software, unless other terms accompany those items. If so, those terms apply.

By purchasing a License for and/or using the software, you accept these terms. If you don’t accept them, do not purchase a License for and/or use the software.

As described below, installation or use of the software also operates as your consent to the transmission of certain standard computer information during validation, automatic download and installation of certain updates, and for Internet-based services.

If you comply with these license terms, you have the rights and obligations below.

10.6

This Agreement is governed by Greek law, and any dispute regarding the interpretation or application of its terms, as well as any conflict arising from it, is subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of Thessaloniki.

Appendix I The license tiers

1.

Full License (Standard & Premium)

The Full License gives access to the Full Library, which includes the best available implementations of the forward and backward passes of the custom operations and the additional functions. In order to train a neural network with the custom operations, both the forward and backward passes are required.

2.

Academic License (Standard & Premium)

The Academic License is identical, in terms of operations and functions, to the Full License, i.e. it gives access to the Full Library (Standard & Premium, respectively) but without the right of commercial use and is only available for verified academic institutions at a significantly lower price.

3.

Free License

The Free License gives access to the Free Library, which is a redacted version of the Full Library, i.e. includes potentially slower implementations of the forward and backward passes of the custom operations and functions and may be missing some features of the Full Library.

The Free License does not include the right for commercial use.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Free License permits use of the Library solely for participation in bona fide AI competitions. For the purposes of this License, an “AI Competition” means a publicly announced challenge or contest in which participants submit models, algorithms, or results for evaluation against predefined criteria, and where any monetary or non-monetary reward is awarded solely based on competitive performance. AI Competitions do not include competitions conducted primarily for the benefit of a specific commercial entity or as part of an employment, consulting, or contractor relationship.

Users may receive prize money or awards granted as a direct result of participation in an AI Competition without such receipt being considered commercial use. This exception does not permit use of the Library for product development, service delivery, internal business purposes, client work, sponsorship obligations, or any other commercial exploitation.

Any use of the Library beyond participation in an AI Competition, including but not limited to commercialization, redistribution, deployment in production systems, or use in revenue-generating activities, requires a Full License. Use of any models, outputs, or derivatives created using the Software outside the scope of the AI Competition requires a Full License.

The Free Library includes / gives access to Updates but at a later date than the Full Library (Standard & Premium).

4.

Inference License (Standard & Premium)

The Inference License gives access to the Inference Library, which includes the forward pass functions of the Full Library (Standard & Premium, respectively). The Inference Library is meant to be deployed in products and services, in order to operate already trained neural networks.

Standard vs Premium License

(I)

Standard License

The Standard License of GeoND might have fewer features than the Premium Version but all features in common shall have the same performance.

Moreover, licensees of the Standard Version shall also have access to certain scientific research / articles of the Developer, albeit such access might be made available after it has become available to licensees of the Premium Version.

The Standard Version of GeoND shall include / give access to Updates but at a later date than the Premium.

(II)

Premium License

The Premium License of GeoND includes all the features available at the best performance available as well as Updates.

Moreover, licensees of the Premium Version shall also have access to certain scientific research / articles of the Developer before these are made available to anyone else.

The Premium License shall be the first to get updates.

Attention: The duration of any Premium License is for two (2) years but if the Client does not renew such Premium License every year, then the second (2nd) year License shall be downgraded to Standard License. More information of the features of the various License Tiers is available on the Website.

Appendix II License Fee

As specified, and amended from time to time, on the Website.

Appendix III Definitions

For the purposes of this Agreement (as defined below), unless the context clearly indicates otherwise, the following terms shall have the following meanings:

“E-Mail Support” means electronically generated Support Services provided in response to electronically transmitted inquiries by Licensee.

“Issue” means an error, question, or other issue related to GeoND for which Client needs Support Services assistance. Developer provides Support Services for Issues that are reproducible, GeoND running unaltered, and on an appropriate hardware, database and operating system configurations, as specified by Developer.

“Update(s)” means revisions to GeoND that correct defects, errors or bugs or incorporate minor enhancements to the functionality that Developer in its discretion makes generally available to its clients. Developer will notify Client of all Updates available for GeoND. Developer will make such Updates and corresponding documentation available to Client at no additional cost.

“Instance(s)” means the number of times the software is loaded on an electronic device’s memory in order to be executed, i.e. the number of copies of the software that are activated on an electronic device’s memory. For example, the software is used for training artificial intelligence models, in which case:

• Training of one (1) model on one (1) GPU equals one (1) instance.
• Training of two (2) models on one (1) GPU equals two (2) instances.
• Training of one (1) model on three (3) GPUs equals three (3) instances.
• Training of two (2) models on four (4) GPUs equals eight (8) instances.

“Website” means “https://geond.tech”.
