1. License. ReadSoft grants you the following rights subject to all terms and conditions of this Agreement.
Installation and use. You may download and install the Software free of charge. In order to fully use the Software, you must purchase a Start package license key; see section 2 below. You may make one copy of the Software for backup purposes only. The backup copy must contain all copyright information contained on the original.

2. Start package. As stated on the site from which you download the Software, you must purchase a Start package to fully use the Software as designed. A Start package is a license "key" necessary for activating all parts of the Software, including, but not limited to, its print driver. Choices of different Start packages are available to suit your needs. The different start packages contain different numbers of EZ-Stamps and numbers of maximum concurrent recipients. You may reload a Start package with additional EZ-Stamps, at an additional charge. You may increase the maximum number of concurrent recipients, at an additional charge. Details concerning prices and how to purchase and use a Start package and EZ-Stamps and recipients are described on the site from which you download the Software. It is not possible to upgrade one Start package to another. You may only use a Start package on one single computer. You may not copy a Start package. You may not reuse the EZ-Stamps a Start package originally contains, or any additional EZ-Stamps you refill the Start package with. You may not increase the maximum number of concurrent recipients without appropriate additional payment.
ReadSoft reserves all rights not expressly granted to you in this Agreement.
