(3) Source code underlying the object code provided with the Software (“Source Code”) is an Institute trade secret which I am not authorized to access. I may not reverse assemble, reverse engineer or decompile the Software or otherwise attempt to access the Source Code.


(4) I will not copy the Software and will not permit access to the software by others.


(5) If I violate the terms of this Agreement, the Educational Institution has the right to take disciplinary action against me and SAS Institute Inc., has the right to take legal action against me.
