You use to protect Your own confidential information of similar importance, but no less than a
reasonable degree of care. You agree to use Apple Confidential Information solely for the
purpose of exercising Your rights and performing Your obligations under this Agreement and
agree not to use Apple Confidential Information for any other purpose, for Your own or any third
partys benefit, without Apple's prior written consent. You further agree not to disclose or
disseminate Apple Confidential Information to anyone other than: (i) Authorized Developers; or (ii)
as otherwise agreed or permitted in writing by Apple. You may disclose Apple Confidential
Information to the extent required by law, provided that You take reasonable steps to notify Apple
of such requirement before disclosing the Apple Confidential Information and to obtain protective
treatment of the Apple Confidential Information. You acknowledge that damages for improper
disclosure of Apple Confidential Information may be irreparable; therefore, Apple is entitled to
seek equitable relief, including injunction and preliminary injunction, in addition to all other
remedies.

Term and Termination

The license to use this version of the Apple Software and Apple Services is effective until
terminated as set forth herein.
This Agreement and all rights under this Agreement will terminate automatically or cease to be
effective without notice from Apple if You or any of Your Authorized Developers fail to comply with
any term(s) of this Agreement. All rights hereunder in any beta or pre-release versions of the
Apple Software for a particular release will terminate upon the commercial release of such Apple
Software.
Upon the termination of this Agreement for any reason, You agree to immediately cease all use of
the Apple Software and Apple Services and erase and destroy all copies, full or partial, of the
Apple Software and Apple Services and all copies of Apple Confidential Information in Your and
Your Authorized Developers' possession or control. At Apples request, You agree to provide
written certification of such destruction to Apple.
Apple reserves the right to revoke, disable or suspend any Provisioning Profiles or any
access to the device deployment and provisioning features of the Apple Software and
Services at any time, in its sole discretion. By way of example, Apple may do this if Apple
has reason to believe that Apple IDs were fraudulently obtained, that an unreasonable
number of devices have been entered into the Apple Software, and/or that the Services are
being used in a fraudulent, suspicious, or improper manner.
The following terms shall survive termination: Section 1, the last sentence of Section 2.1, the last
two sentences of Section 2.2B., the second to last sentence of Section 2.4, Section 2.6, Section
2.7, the last sentence of 2.12, and Sections 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, and 8. Apple will not be liable for
compensation, indemnity, or damages of any sort as a result of terminating this Agreement in
accordance with its terms, and termination of this Agreement will be without prejudice to any other
right or remedy Apple may have, now or in the future.
