1.	Definitions.

1.1	"OFRAK" consists of (a) the source code repository for OFRAK, which can
be found at https://github.com/red-balloon-security/ofrak; (b) the following
Python packages, which are also available via PyPI, the Python Package Index:
ofrak, ofrak_components, ofrak_io, ofrak_type, ofrak_patch_maker, ofrak_angr,
ofrak_binary_ninja, ofrak_ghidra; (c) the OFRAK graphical user interface (GUI);
and (d) OFRAK documentation. OFRAK includes all updates, improvements, APIs and
add-ons provided by Red Balloon with respect thereto that Red Balloon makes
available to Licensee under this OFRAK Pro Agreement.  OFRAK is presently made
available in three formats:  (i) source code repository, (ii) PyPI Packages and
(iii) Docker images with dependencies preinstalled.

1.2	"Academic Purposes" means use within a non-profit academic institution
by its then-current faculty and students for the purposes of non-profit
scholarly research, classroom and education, and not any other use (including
without limitation, directly or indirectly in connection with any commercial
activity such as, for example, sponsored research or consulting services).
Shared Use of OFRAK for an Academic Purpose is permitted only when (a) used for
educational purposes, (b) access is restricted and not provided to the general
public, (c) access is limited to employees and/or students of the same
institution involved in a specific educational activity, and (d) all users
accept and are subject to this Agreement.

1.3	"Non-Commercial Use" means personal research, evaluation, or
development use by an individual, and not use by or on behalf of any commercial
entity or organization or directly or indirectly in connection with any
commercial activity.  For clarity, you cannot make money off of redistributing
OFRAK code (including Derivatives), OFRAK analysis, OFRAK-modified binaries, or
other OFRAK outputs.  Non-Commercial Use also excludes any Shared Use.

1.4	"Commercial Use" means any use other than Academic Purposes or
Non-Commercial Use, including, without limitation, use for any commercial
purpose or by any commercial entity, including without limitation
redistributing the OFRAK code (including Derivatives), OFRAK analysis,
OFRAK-modified binaries, or other OFRAK outputs for any monetary or other
commercial consideration.

1.5	"Derivatives" means any modifications, additions, enhancements, or
derivative works of OFRAK or any component thereof.  For purposes of this
Agreement, Derivatives shall not include works that remain separable from, or
merely link to, the interfaces of OFRAK or any Derivatives.

1.6	"Shared Use" means  any use of OFRAK where the person who set up a
particular instance of OFRAK is not the same person interacting with that
instance of OFRAK, or where a single instance of OFRAK is used by more than one
person (whether on the same or different occasions). This includes, but is not
limited to, the use of OFRAK on a server that is accessible by more than one
person, or by any person other than the person who set up the use of OFRAK on
the said server.

available forks on GitHub.com), (ii) for Shared Use for an Academic Purpose,

clarity, the foregoing license does not grant to you any right or license to
commercialize, distribute or use OFRAK, Derivatives, OFRAK code, OFRAK
analysis, OFRAK-modified binaries, or other OFRAK outputs for any other purpose
whatsoever, including Commercial Use, other than Academic Purposes or
